Deeds for Laird Church and Laird Cemetery
Submitted by Sandy (Whalen) Bauer - Nov 1, 2023
These records are from her Laird and Shrum ancestors, dated 1880, 1881, 1892 and 1950.

Many volunteers have worked very hard to provide the researchers of Jefferson County a listing of Cemeteries and to provide pictures of headstones to help you in your personal research.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE the cemetery listings and pictures that others have worked so hard to provide and add it to any other website as your own.

Thank You for understanding and respecting the work of others.
