Introduction

Below are cemeteries that are within 30 miles [48.3 km]<1> of the Brunson Memorial 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 Brunson Memorial Cemetery. For information of that nature, we recommend you visit Find-A-Grave's<2> entry for the Brunson Memorial Cemetery (FG ID #310941).

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.
