I visited this cemetery on 7/10/15 and only few stones remain but I found a list online and then received a copy of Tombstone Inscriptions Warren County, Illinois Hale Township Pleasant Green Cemetery from Warren County, Illinois Genealogical society from D.Webb. I have added everyone from that list with the info contained in that document. If there isn't a stone attached to the memorial then there wasn't one still standing.
