Second Batch of Cemetery Maps Now Uploaded to our Website!

In August of this year, we announced that our resident map guru, Jim Bellenger, has been using his talents to superimpose old cemetery maps onto new Google maps and georeference them so that exact locations of even long-gone cemeteries are now visible. Jim has worked with dozens of people in St. Louis City and County and beyond to obtain maps of the cemeteries, get permission to use them, and link them to the cemetery pages on our website. Because this is so time-consuming, we are releasing the maps in groups of about twenty to thirty, and now, we are happy to share the next batch of maps with you. (If you missed the post about the first set, you can read it here.)

Below you will find a list of the new cemetery maps that we have added to our website since August. In addition, we have updated our "St. Louis Area Cemeteries List" page to include links to the individual cemetery pages on the left and map links on the right. (See arrow below.) As we add more maps, more links will be added to that "Maps" column.

We are excited to make the map pages open to everyone, but the cemetery pages, where there are thousands of names and related information, are for StLGS members only. The technology needed to fund projects such as this one is very expensive, so we hope you will consider joining, if you aren't already a member, and/or making a donation. Thank you for helping to make this exciting collection possible!

Here are the new maps. Please note that some of the cemeteries have had multiple names over time, and these name changes are explained on the cemetery pages.
