GRAVES IN PILOT KNOB CEMETERY, BEREA, KENTUCKY
I think I grew up in this cemetery, Daddy and Mama went every Sunday and more to check on my sister's grave--their first child, Hilda, who had died at the age of 8. The families of ones buried there used to have " all day cleanings" where we would take picnic lunches and eat under the trees. I go there often and it is like going home to me, to walk around and see the names I've grown up knowing. If anyone has a lookup request for a grave, I will try to help, just email me. This is a large cemetery, but I am going to try my best to get everyone's name on here that is possible to see.
This by no means is full listing of cemetery
