Burials
Jefferson, Lewis, and Oswego Counties of Northern New York
This collection currently holds information on over 110,000 graves in the Jefferson and Lewis Counties portion Northern New York and Oswego County of Central New York.
Not all of the graves in this collection have been photographically confirmed. The recording of burials has been a work in progress for over 15 years, long before the advent of digital cameras. Our goal is to digitally photograph all of the stones in each of the cemeteries that we visit. As many of the stones have either been removed or have deteriorated to the point of no longer being readable, we may not be able to provide confirmation of the burial.
To obtain the additional information on a particular grave, please use the Information Request page. Also if it shows that a photograph is available, the photographs are currently not online. Please use the Information Request page to request a copy of the photograph.
Since names have changed over time and we don’t always have accurate spellings, it’s recommended that you search for the full last name first. If the name you are searching for isn’t returned, then search by the first 3 or 4 letters of the last name. Soundex search is currently not implemented, so you may want to also search by variations of the name.
