A visit to the Clore Cemetery ...


We aren't confident of the location of the Clore Cemetery, so consider the above location as an estimate.<1>


Introduction ...

Since our focus is on geography, we don't have burial or interment information. Nor do we have any contact information for the Clore Cemetery. For information of that nature, we suggest the Find-A-Grave <2> website: The Clore Cemetery (FG ID #2433467)

Note: We have organized the cemeteries in our Gazetteer based on a problem that we had while working on our own genealogy. Without specifying the cemeteries involved, we found an ancestor that we believed to have been buried in one cemetery was actually buried elsewhere.

We discovered that his burial had been refused at the last moment and the family had scrambled to make new arrangements. By looking at nearby cemeteries, the surrounding communities and in newspapers of the period, we were finally able to locate his burial site.

Should you find yourself in the same situation, we hope that our Gazetteer helps you discover your lost ancestor.

The Location of the Clore Cemetery ...

Note: The GPS location that we are using for the Clore Cemetery has been estimated.

We are using the following GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude) for the Clore Cemetery

Lat:   38.3394°   (38° 20' 21")

Lon:   -85.4756°   (-85° 28' 32")

The cemetery is located in Oldham County<3>.

As an estimate, the Clore Cemetery is located outside and to the south of Crestwood.

The county seat for Oldham County is located in La Grange. La Grange lies just to the northeast of the Clore Cemetery .

    Miscellaneous References and Mentions ...

    Our approach is to add the name of a cemetery whenever we see it mentioned - usually from newspapers, old books and maps. Typically we have little information to start with, but we continue to add detail as we find it.

    We've created the following list to keep track of the sources that we found useful for the Clore Cemetery:

    The official website for Oldham County: www.oldhamcounty.net/

    Footnotes ...

    <1>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.
    <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>If you're interested in how the shape of Kentucky's counties, including Oldham, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
    <4>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or 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 Clore Cemetery. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 38.3394, Longitude: -85.4756    
    <5>The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required.
