This burial record was compiled from the old original cemetery map on file in the City Engineer’s office under map index number P-47 and also the old sexton record books on file in the City Clerk's office.
In all probability these are the only records in existence. I was unable to locate any burial records between the dates of March 30, 1894 and March 30, 1903. However, upon a search of the cemetery lots, several headstones and other markers were found giving evidence of burials between these dates. These names and corresponding Block and Lot numbers were entered in this book. From this smae[small] search a few errors were found in the old records as to correct locations. These errors were corrected and noted in both sets of books.
To the best of my knowledge, this record is a complete and true one of all the burials in the old Protestant Cemetery, except those burials between the dates before mentioned.
