Introduction

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

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.).
