Welcome

The following is a listing of the Cemeteries that I have compiled for Jackson County, Kansas. Some of these cemeteries may have had different names in the course of history, so this list may contain duplicates or the cemetery may be listed here under a different name than you know. It is also not all inclusive.

If transcriptions are available, they will be found by pushing on the underlined names. I have listed the Townships, if they are known.

If you would like to volunteer and submit a transcript of a Cemetery in Jackson County and/or have any additions or corrections, please email me.

I do not have any further information on these cemeteries other than what is available on this page.
