Northwest Township, Southwest 1/4 Section 33

This is a list of those buried at Freeman Cemetery. I went there yesterday and copied all of the headstones that are there now. Just guessing there could be as many as 90 graves but the list below is what has headstones. I hope this information helps someone else the way all of the info on Orange County Site has helped and continues to help me.
