Introduction

Below are cemeteries that are within 30 miles [48.3 km]<1> of the Fernley Desert Memorial Garden. 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 Fernley Desert Memorial Garden. For information of that nature, we recommend you visit Find-A-Grave's<2> entry for the Fernley Desert Memorial Garden (FG ID #2149644).

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 things 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 Fernley Desert Memorial Garden. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 39.6171, Longitude: -119.2309    
<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>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.
