Nail Factory Cemetery reinterments

There are about 360 known interments in the Nail Factory Cemetery between 1850 and 1884, with an unknown number of interments between 1836 and 1850. This virtual cemetery is a list of reinterments from the Nail Factory Cemetery to Oakwood Cemetery or New Mount Ida Cemetery. With only 56 people on it, that amounts to only about 15%. Oakwood's interment records document a number of reinterments from other cemeteries, not all of which have visible headstones. These can generally be found in their records by scanning the "Notes" column for "Removal" or by scanning the "Date" column for dates that are years or decades out of line with surrounding dates, and then seeing if the name and other info matches one of a known Nail Factory Cemetery interment. Actual dates of reinterment at Oakwood seemingly can only be inferred on the basis of surrounding dates. The relative few reinterred at New Mount Ida Cemetery were identified on the basis of headstones found there for them, which the exception of the Marble children Hannah, James, and Martha. They're theorized to have been reinterred with their parents Hiram and Margaret Marble, who both do have headstones. One might provisionally conclude that about 85% of the approximately 360 known interments in the Nail Factory Cemetery between 1850 and 1884 might remain at the Nail Factory Cemetery, though further evidence for some other reinterments might be found.
