Comments: 

     

Any dates in Red are not inscribed on the tombstone and have either been calculated based on death date or are as a result of research on the individual.

There are likely many names of persons buried here that are not included in the above list, since there are easily over 800 burials in the Witcher Cemetery!  If you know of any names that should be listed above, and if you have any photos of their tombstones that you would be willing to share on this page, please contact WVCPA. In the meantime, we'll be adding names and dates as we discover them.

The photos of tombstones initially posted on this site for this cemetery have been provided by family researcher, Ron Craig. Subsequent photos are the work of long-time contributor P.J. Copen. Our thanks to both of them for all their hard work and interest in sharing the photos with other researchers and family members across the country via this WVCPA page.
