St. John Cemetery Sunfish, KY - Color A-J

Autor Daniel B. Durbin
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Dan was born in Sunfish Kentucky, but raised in the Louisville, Kentucky area. He is a Vietnam Veteran. He holds a degree in Computer Science. Dan and his wife Sally are both now retired, living on a mini-farm near Louisville, Kentucky. Genealogy, gardening, golfing and fishing have replaced work with leisure. The community of Sunfish was established in the late 1790's to early 1800's. The names of the early settlers included Bush, Davies, Durbin, Duvall, Logsdon, Nash, Miller, Simon and Woosley. The Durbin's and Logsdon's originally settled in Madison county and migrated to Sunfish around 1820. The first Catholic church in Sunfish was built in 1830 behind the present St. John's church, located on the East side of Bear Creek. The people who grew up in Sunfish, Kentucky and attended St. John's personally knew most of the individuals who are buried in the cemetery. They easily placed names, families and stories to go along with the tombstones. As the older residents have passed on, these recollections have been lost. This book is a color pictorial presentation of the Cemetery at St John's Catholic Church in Sunfish, Kentucky. The entire St John Cemetery could not be in one book due to publisher printing limits. There are two volumes, one for names A through J, and one for names K through Z. This book is intended as a genealogy reference guide containing personal information for each grave in the cemetery. A tombstone by itself usually does not contain maiden names, nor multiple spouses. Each reference page contains a photo of the tombstone or marker and its location in the cemetery. In addition, individual and spouse photos are included, if available. spouse(s) are listed. Genealogy information is detailed for siblings, parents, grandparents, great-grandparents and children. There are 668 marked graves, plus 1 unmarked grave, in St. John Cemetery as of November 2013. Some of the markers listed on the original survey plot map, completed in March of 1986, are now missing. Also some markers listed on the plot map are now illegible due to the ravages of the elements. The readable graves contain 275 males, 252 females and 7 unnamed infants whose sex was not listed on the grave stone. There are 87 white stone markers, some of which have initials. It is probable that most of these are markers for small children. The mortality rate for children was very high well into the 1940's. Multiple small white stone markers are often on both sides of the parents graves. The larger tombstones with birth and death dates for the children have many born and dying on the same day, or within the first year. Some of the mothers also died during childbirth or soon afterwards...
