Cornell Cemetery
Cornell Cemetery History Book
After retirement, Mary E. Flood Carlson’s mission focused on discovering Cemetery Directories on site.
She and her spouse “tromped every size cemetery from the back roads of Wisconsin to U.S. National Cemeteries to Ireland” before volunteering for FindAGrave.
A note from the author: “I have made efforts to maintain privacy when indicated and to document facts and dates accurately. Any errors are mine.”
Cornell Cemetery Index
Recently work was completed on updating the Cornell Cemetery Index along with an aerial map.
The Chippewa County Genealogical Society indexed the Cornell Cemetery in 1991. Gravesite information from new gravestones were added in 2023 for burials through 2022.
This effort was undertaken for the benefit of living relatives, friends, and community members, near and far.
