St. Joseph Cemetery: Highland, Illinois

              St Joseph Cemetery
Prepared by Roy J. Worstell
Completed on Oct 3, 2000
This book was prepared by walking each row of gravestones and examining
each one. All the information from each stone were then written down, (dates,
marriage, children, military, etc...) this was later typed. I am sure a few errors
were made in completing a project of this magnitude. I was very careful to
minimize these errors. If any are found, Please let me known so they may be
corrected.
All of the Sections were read starting on the Northeast corner, reading each
row from North to South, moving West to the next row. All of the stones were
read in the first seven Sections. In Section Eigth, Nine, Ten and Eleven at
least 95 to 98 percent were read and are in the book. In Section Twelve only
about 60 to 70 percent were readable.
An index is for each section, listing the family name, first name and middle
initial, the wife maid name if know, year of birth, section and row in which
they were buried. This index may be used to locate the grave either in this
book or in the cemetery.
It is hoped that this book will become a valuable instrument in helping the
good people of Highland and surrounding areas in discovering their loved
ones and anscesters.
If anyone wish to have a book of their own, I can provide one for $35.00.
