Description: Kight Cemetery is names for Henry Kight & his wife Nancy. There is no path to the cemetery, currently located across a field in a wooded area. In the time I was there, it seemed like I would find another stone every time I turned around. There are probable more stones there, and I hope to revisit this cemetery soon to take a more in-depth look to see if any more stones can be found. In older cemetery readings, up to 25 are known to be buried here where I have found only a small fraction of those on my visit.
Pictures: I took pictures of EVERY stone in this cemetery in October 2010
Link to Pictures: 105 pictures (50 on a page, 3 pages)
Internment List: I created this internment list (INDEX OF PICTURES) using my pictures, along with old cemetery readings and any other records that could be found. I have also created a similar list for the IGHS (Illiana Genealogical & Historical Society) that includes additional information then what is found here, so please check them out if you are looking for additional information. PLEASE NOTE: I do NOT guarantee the list of be 100% accurate or correct. If you have any additional information or corrections, please feel free to add a note below. Also PLEASE do not copy the list & call it your own - give credit back to COAN.NET or to this site, VermilionCounty.info. Thanks
