What is in This Collection?[edit | edit source]

This collection contains cemetery records from the Crown Hill Cemetery in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. The collection was created from a survey of the cemetery made by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1952. At that time the cemetery was in an unincorporated part of Jefferson County, and Denver was the largest nearby major city. The city of Wheat Ridge was incorporated in 1969.

Additional records and/or images may be added to this collection in the future.

For additional information about image restrictions see Restrictions for Viewing Images in FamilySearch Historical Record Collections.
