June 2022: Rising Sun (German) Cemetery & Rising Sun New Cemetery, Indiana
- Rising Sun New Cemetery has taken over Rising Sun (German) Cemetery. The sign for the German cemetery will remain. The newer obits list burial in New cemetery, even if buried in the German cemetery.
============
For locations of birth and death: I get many edits from several people asking to add birth and death locations using the census. The census is not accurate documentation, it is a guess based on where they were living when the census occurred. Birth state is listed, but not county or city of birth.
============
9/21/2021. I label the "Cemetery Plot#" according to the Veterans Administration Nationwide Gravesite Locator in military cemeteries. I use their format when putting info on a memorial.

Arlington National Cemetery uses a different location format.
