Fairchild Cemetery was transcribed by Fred and Kathy Butcher and is available in the Danville (Illinois) Public Library Archives (Arch 977.365 FAI). The authors note, “In the fall of 2000 it was noted that many pieces of tombstones were in the ravine, over the fence, on the north edge of the cemetery. Fred and Bob Butcher moved the stones back into the cemetery…There are many stones not accounted for.”This excellent reference contains both transcriptions and photographs. The oldest stone listed in the Butchers’ transcripts was that of Amy Fairchild (1-12-1769/12-30-1834). The last burial occurred in 1934 or 1935. According to the Butchers’ research, this cemetery is very large and contains the following family surnames: Albert, Allbright, Allen, Anderson, Barber, Barkley, Barton, Beaver, Blevens, Bodley, Boven, Breeden, Butler, Caster, Donder, Cooper, Corbin, Cosat, Crawford, Cunduff, Daniel, Daniels, Davis, Demorist, Dodson, Downs, Elliot, Elter, Fairchild, Firebaugh, Fullington, Furrow, Hefferan, Hicks, Hoth, Jarvis, Judy, Juvenal, Kidwell, Kilch, Kinman, Kinney, Lane, Lanham, Lindsey, Lockhard, Loving, Maskel, McCorkhall, McCoy, Moss, Peterson, Phipps, Pilkington, Reaser, Reader, Rickart, Robison, Stonestreet, Truax, Watkins, Whitsett, Williams, Wise, Wood, and Wyman.
