Utah Cemeteries: Difference between revisions

You may also want to review the [[United_States_Cemeteries|United States Cemeteries]] page for more information on cemeteries and grave markers.   

The Family History Library has transcriptions for many Utah cemeteries. Cemetery records often include birth, marriage, and death information. They sometimes provide clues about military service, religion, or membership in an organization. These records are useful in identifying children who died young or women who were not recorded in family or government documents. They are helpful in establishing family relationships and locating family members. For Utah, there are statewide indexes and collections for many cemeteries. Some of these have been indexed in the [[Early_Church_Information_File_(ECIF)|Early Church Information File]].
