Index to "MOST Cemeteries of Jamestown, Stutsman County, North Dakota"2000

This index contains all of the names that appear in the 250 page 8.5 x 11 inch volume.  This
new volume contains all of the marker inscriptions, and burials without markers taken from
cemetery records for around 8000 burials.  When searching, be aware that a few of the names are
followed by an asterisk, such as Johnson*.  This indicates that the marker did not contain the
surname that was assumed from a nearby family stone.  The name could not be confirmed by
cemetery records or by obituary indexes.   A few are followed by a question mark, ?, to
indicate that we were dobutful of the surname chosen.

This book was compiled during the period April to October, 2000.  It covers all cemeteries
associated with Jamestown having markers, EXCEPT Highland Home Cemetery.
