Noble County tombstone readings were first
taken by members of DAR in 1934. The Noble County Genealogical Society
updated readings in the early 1980's. From 1996 until current year,
records are updated each summer, and the most recent readings were obtained in
2013.
About Photos: J R Nash has photographed some of the gravestones and
has generously contributed them to this record. The readable information
from the stone is being added to the site as time allows. A copy of the actual
full-sized photo may be obtained by contacting jeenee@embarqmail.com. Permission
must be obtained from J R Nash if copies for other than personal use are to be
made. He can be reached at: truly123pics@hotmail.com. In
order to access a photograph, click on an underlined name within the
cemetery record. This will reveal the page where the photograph is
stored. The gravestone photo will appear in the top row. (Names have not
been linked within the alphabetical listing.)
Previous readings were included here
when unkempt conditions prevented access to the cemeteries and/or deteriorated
and broken stones made accurate readings impossible. Multiple names engraved
on one stone are listed individually here for alphabetical sorting
purposes. A 2-digit code is used to identify the larger cemeteries,
followed by the section and row number. Information obtained from burial
records (when there is no tombstone) is designated by "bu rec".
Dates in italics were taken from obituary records and may or may not be
engraved. * indicates a stone was not located in current research, but prior
records were included.

Noble Notes: Whoever said "A good memory is
fine; but the ability to forget is great,"
never tried to help Grandpa remember where he put his hearing aid.
