Genealogy and the Marion Cemetery

    The Marion Cemetery is a rich source of genealogical information. The cemetery records contain names of the deceased, death and/or burial dates, cause of death, and occasionally birth information.

   Our records date back to 1857 and are available by e-mail, regular post or by stopping into the office. If you have more than three name, please call or e-mail our office a week in advance with the names you are looking for prior to arriving at the cemetery office. Each name request is attached with a $1.00 research fee.

    If you are in need of further help or would like an in depth study of your family history, our local genealogist Doug Smith is available for hire. If you would like to contact Doug, please send him an e-mail at frodo4947@verizon.net.

    Under the Gallery link you will find pictures of the Marion Cemetery Association prior to 1906. There is also an online copy of the book published by the association in 1906.
