Niagara County Cemeteries

One of the FamilySearch microfilms that has been digitized is the Grace Episcopal Church records. Included in the records is a section titled “Burials” in which there is a chronological listing of deceased members. Information includes:

• Date of burial
• Number [a count of those added into this register]
• Name of decedent
• Age
• B. C. C.
• Residence
• Date of death
• Cause of death
• Place of burial
• Signature of Clergyman

Between January 1905 and December 1928 there are 515 burials that were recorded in this church record. January 1905 begins on image 307 of 414. The record ends on image 326 of 414. The records are mostly in chronological order, however the book ran out of room for 1927 and 1928, so those records were continued on earlier pages that had space available (such as image 310 of 414).

The beginning of the burials (image 307 of 414) can be found at: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS5F-46V6?i=306&cat=52389.
