Cemeteries

This list of cemeteries is, of course, incomplete. Links are provided for online cemeteries with credit being given as to their source. If you know of other cemeteries in Jackson County, know the locations of the ones below, or would like to put a survey online, please e-mail me.

The names of the districts and locations of these cemeteries were determined in part by lists and maps contained in the book Jackson County, Georgia Cemetery Records by James A. and Betty Ann Waddell Mathis (© 1980; published by Heritage Papers, Danielsville, GA 30633). Information was also compiled from local maps and online references.

Some of the smaller cemeteries may contain “maps” or plats of how the grave sites and/or tombstones are laid out in relation to one another. Please remember that these are only rough guidelines and not exact maps.

None of these surveys were taken from copyrighted material. Please only submit work you have done yourself. Tombstone photographs are welcome. When submitting a cemetery, please do not alphabetize the individuals; this destroys any genealogical clues which might be contained in the relationship of one individual’s grave site to another’s.
