In Closing ...
If you know of any cemeteries that we are missing in the area of Sirko, can you supply us with the name of the cemetery, its street address or GPS location, 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 has been known by.
Although we don't have the information ourselves, if you need information about a burial or interment, photos, transcripts, how to contact the cemetery or local authorities, please visit our list of websites on our Genealogy Helper Page for Sirko - one of the links might be able to help.

Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Sirko) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Sirko. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 49.0156, Longitude: -96.2461
