Harrison County, Kentucky Cemeteries Workspace

This page has been created as a research/maintenance aid for working on cemeteries in Harrison County, Kentucky. It's a bit of a rough draft at this point, since it's a new project/goal. As work progresses, this may be adapted into a general information space page on Harrison County cemeteries. Contributions are invited - if you work with the Cemeterist Project, the Kentucky Project, the The Harrison County, Kentucky One Place Study, or simply have an interest in Harrison County cemeteries and want to help out, you're most welcome. Current Harrison County cemetery categories can be found here.

* If you need assitance creating a category, please contact the page manager.

Cemetery creation in progress

• Missing Cemeteries Big: 0
• Missing Cemeteries Small: 50
• 30 Oct 2022 - There are 49 cemeteries with WT profiles linked to FG that have no WT cemetery cat. The report shows 50, but one of these is a duplicate cemetery on FG.
  • Adding these 49 cemetery categories to the existing 22 would equal slightly more than half of the current cemeteries listed on FG (these have not yet been thoroughly reviewed for accuracy or duplication), and about 43% of the currently known, documented cemeteries in Harrison County.
• Current number of cemeteries in Harrison County listed on FindaGrave: 136 (plus 3 duplicates)
• Current number of cemetery categories for Harrison County on WikiTree: 61
