About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The original Brown Cemetery was established in 1888 and lies south of the gravel road that continues east from the intersection of Oval Avenue and 230th Street. The plat is available for viewing at the Gallatin City Hall and in one of the photos on this page. It shows 96 numbered burial spaces and 6 lettered spaces, plus 10 numbered and 8 lettered spaces in the Addition.
It is separated from Greenwood Cemetery, to its north, only by a gravel driveway, resulting in significant confusion, historically. Quite commonly, older obituaries, death certificates, and even local publications such as "Green Hills Pioneers" show a burial as being in Brown Cemetery, while it is actually in Greenwood. If memorial being looked for is not here, look in Greenwood Cemetery (2142176).
