Sunnyslope Cemetery aka Church of the Brethren

The first settlers of Sunnyslope came to the area by train in Dec 1902. The first burial in the cemetery was in Mar 1903. Although the cemetery is a community cemetery, many of those buried were members of the Church of the Brethren.

The table SEARCH box on the top right can also be used to search for data in ANY column. No need to use ‘wildcards’ in your search, the filters do that automatically, therefore don’t put too much info in any filter box; it could cause nothing to be found; start with just a few characters in the search boxes (like: jone for searching for Jones, Edward C. in the NAME column filter box), then add more characters or use other column filters to narrow your search.
