Introduction

Below are cemeteries that are within 30 miles [48.3 km]<1> of the Old Tehachapi Cemetery. The cemeteries are listed in alphabetical order.

Since our focus is on geography, we don't have any burial or interment information. Nor do we have any contact information for the Old Tehachapi Cemetery. For information of that nature, we recommend you visit Find-A-Grave's<2> entry for the Old Tehachapi Cemetery (FG ID #2151571).

We are always looking for corrections and additions to our Gazetteer. If you can help, we are looking for information such as the name of the cemetery, its GPS coordinates, whether the cemetery is still in use or if it is historic (ie- defunct, abandoned,  etc.). If it applies, we would also like to learn of any past or alternate names that the cemetery may have been known by.

Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- ) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point at the Old Tehachapi Cemetery. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 35.1401, Longitude: -118.4792    
<2>The Find-a-Grave website is an excellent research tool with information about a cemetery's location and interments. They also offer a forum for their members which can provide additional help. More information about Find-a-Grave can be found on their website: findagrave.com.
<3>An 'estimated' location is one where we have been given GPS coordinates, but are unable to verify the accuracy of those coordinates. That said, we have some confidence that we have placed the marker near the actual location. A typical reason for being unable to verify a location is that it might be on private property or maybe historic and gone without an obvious trace.
<4>To help visualize the location of the cemetery, we've drawn a straight line between the communities of Lebec and Grapevine. The cemetery can be found near that line and roughly halfway between the two communities. Remember that this is just an approximate location.
