THE CEMETERIES OF OLD GUILFORD COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
(Including Some That Are Now In Neighboring Counties)
Index of Cemeteries ~ “I” through “Q”
Please report all non-working links, corrections, and additions to the county coordinator. Cemeteries that are known by more than one surname are listed under all the surnames used in the cemetery’s name. Cemeteries described in the published sources as “Unidentified Family” will be found on the last page of this cemetery index. GCGS has published many cemetery surveys, and selling those publications is a main source of revenue for them.
Below are the names of cemeteries, some with information on their locations, and with a key to any published catalogs, which are detailed near the end of this page. It should be noted that Find-A-Grave locations are not always accurate; I have tried to correlate that information with denominational directories and maps. Also, sometimes people set up separate entries on FAG for the same church.
Cemetery Census is a growing site, and a very good one.
