{{Chile-sidebar}}Cemetery records include tombstone records and sexton records. Cemetery records may give more information than parish burial registers or civil certificates of deaths. They may include the name of the deceased, age at death, date of death or burial, birth year or date of birth, birthplace, and sometimes marriage information. They may also provide clues about military service, religion, occupation, place of residence at time of death, or membership in an organization. | {{Chile-sidebar}}{{breadcrumb | ||

Tombstone information may be very helpful. Many of the inscriptions on gravestones and monuments have been transcribed and are found in manuscripts and printed books in cemetery offices or libraries. | Tombstone information may be very helpful.
