GILMER CITY CEMETERY (NEW)
(The city of Gilmer refers to this section of the cemetery as Greenwood Cemetery. The public knows this section as simply the New Gilmer City Cemetery. There are no signs to designate the difference in name for the Old section and the New section, which causes some confusion.)

Our thanks go to the Upshur County Historical Commission for the use of their reading.
We also thank Eva Joyce Richardson for her updated complete reading Dec. 2002.
Thanks go to Geraldine Little Braswell & Sandy Spann for photographing all the headstones April 2008.

As hard as we all try, we are human and sometimes when reading a cemetery we miss a grave covered with leaves, fireants, or bushes. Sometimes the headstone has sunk and is mostly underground. Our area also has many graves only marked with iron ore rocks and even many unmarked graves. There are headstones that have long ago been destroyed by the elements or even vandalizm, and are hard to impossible to readthe details. We would appreciate it if you would let us know if you did not find your relative which was buried here, and would appreciate your letting us use the information you know about them. With the combined efforts of us all, we can make the Upshur County website bigger and better.
