Burial List of Bachelors Grove

I have spent the last few years gathering information of those buried in Bachelors Grove Cemetery. This is still a work in progress. This is a list of original burials which does include (and notes) those who have been removed and re-buried in other cemeteries. If you know of anyone buried in the Grove who is not on this list,please let me know. Be sure to re-visit this blog often, as I am always adding and changing data as it becomes available.
