Alachua County Virtual Cemetery Project Search
Search the Virtual Cemetery and DAR Cemetery Books
This search includes the cemeteries that we have photographed and the transcriptions from the 1966 DAR books compiled in the 1960s. Some of the names from the DAR books no longer have visible markers.
If You have any information on any of our Unknowns Or you know of a cemetery that we have not found,
please let us know. You can email me at Jim Powell Jr or you can make a comment on our
Alachua County Virtual Cemetery Project FaceBook Page.
You can also find out what we are up to on the facebook page.
