Vernon City Cemetery, Vernon, Lamar County, Alabama
Originally known as the Vernon Odd Fellows (IOOF) Cemetery
No. 93 on the 2002 Cemetery Map of Lamar County
Located in Vernon on Route 17, 0.2 mi. south of County Road 9
Surveyed by Paul Hays, Kawatha Chandler “Kay” Koonce, and James W. “Jim” Dierking during August 2004. Another survey was completed in January 2006 by James D. “Dan” Herren as an assignment for Dr. Jerry Oldshue’s University of Alabama course, “Cemeteries and Local History.” To the extent possible, and with Mr. Herren’s generous cooperation and assistance, his survey has been incorporated with this. The survey was updated in April 2006.
Additional information was obtained from an unpublished list prepared by Maggie Lee Davis Hayes, the noted local historian who is herself buried in this cemetery. Her list, compiled about 1962, contains a number of minor differences from this record as to names and dates. It also includes several graves that were not identifiable in 2004. Sarah Gann Guin Loftis identified other “lost” graves from personal knowledge.
The graves recorded by Mrs. Hayes or Mrs. Loftis that were no longer evident in 2004 are listed alphabetically at the end of this transcription. The variations between Mrs. Hayes’ data and that recorded during this survey are displayed in notes that begin “(MLH: ….),” following the inscriptions and preceding the transcribers’ annotations.
A small section of graves lies just outside a gate near the southwest corner of the cemetery. Although technically not a part of this cemetery, the graves there are included with this list, following the last row and before the “lost” graves recorded by Mrs. Hayes and Mrs. Loftis.
There are no perfectly straight rows in this cemetery, and the decision of which row in which to list some graves is a matter of judgment and debate. Generally, rows are listed herein from east to west, beginning at the highway; within each row, graves are listed from north to south. Names, dates (as best as they could be deciphered in some cases), and military service are recorded as they appear on the markers in boldface type. Multiple graves with one headstone, or family plots, are so noted in parentheses. Other annotations in parentheses were added by Paul Hays, Kawatha “Kay” Koonce, Jean Smith Carr, Janie Spencer, Allison M. Saxman, Jim Newell, Donna Sanders Thompson, Edna Boman Sanders, and Rayburn Metcalfe, and reflect their best efforts to identify, based on their own personal knowledge and research, the parents and/or spouses of the people buried there. Corrections may be forwarded to paulhays@verizon.net.
