Fairview Historian: 2003-Current
I am trying to add the exact burial locations to all who are buried in Historic Fairview Cemetery and Fairview Memorial Park. All burial locations are listed in a consistent manner because of the lack of headstones and mapping. I have a data base for the historic side burials, both alphabetically as well as per sections. This will be donated to the proper entities when I am through with this project. If my flower is on an entry - I have doubled checked it against the cemetery records and to the best of my knowledge, the location is correct. Unfortunately, there will always be mistakes in a 140-year-old cemetery while working from old records.
Please note: Many of the death dates listed on the entries are actually burial dates and may be off by a few days.

I have opened a blog with the history of the cemetery and some of the people buried in the historic side. In time, I will add more stories as my research continues. My blog is temporarily closed waiting publication. (March 2024)

The use of the words "Temporary Marker" means that the marker was donated by the cemetery and was never meant to be permanent. These markers are usually blocks with metal tags and through the years have strayed from their original locations. Please do not assume a temporary marker is in the correct location. Go to the office or contact me especially if you want to place a permanent marker on your loved one's grave.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need help locating a grave in the historic side or have noticed a mistake in one of my entries. I would like all my entries to be as accurate as possible.
