Colorado County Cemeteries

Colorado County cemetery records are also available online at Nesbitt Memorial Library Cemetery Listing where additional information and comments are available on each cemetery. At the library site there is also an alphabetical listing of all known burials in the county. Much of the information contained here is the results of the diligent work of Bill Stein and his volunteers in surveying cemeteries within the county.

You may check for a brief description of a cemetery by using the heading bar over the cemetery /cemeteries in which you are interested. There are also direct links from this page to each of the cemeteries. With the help of volunteer John Konesheck , we have added the names of those known to have been buried in each of these cemeteries as well as a list of those felt to have been buried in the county but the name of the cemetery is unknown (See Burial place unknown or Cremated).

At the request of a patron, we added the following designations: (W) all White or White/Hispanic burials; (B) all Black burials; and (M) mixed burials.
