About This Resource:
Brattons Run Cemetery is located on Brattons Run Road just outside of
Goshen. The cemetery itself is marked only with a very small sign and is in the middle of the woods, so
missing it down the long straight stretch of road is easy. The cemetery backs to a stream and again is
surrounded by heavy woods so not a lot of sunlight gets into this area. There are less that 100 total
graves and most are moss covered.
The cemetery was read and imaged in August 2005. The database and associated images are the copyrighted work of William E. Wilson, Jr. who generously supplied them to the Allen County Public Library for distribution to individual genealogical researchers.
About Searching This Resource:
The database doesn't store the surname separately from the first name,
so you'll have to enter your search like this:
The search engine will try to be as flexible as possible. Therefore, if Use Fuzzy Search is
set to Yes (which it is by default), the search engine will
match partial names. If you search for Smith, the engine will find
anything that has Smith in it. It would find Smith, Adam, Smithson, Ted, etc.
If you set Use Fuzzy Search to No, then searching for Smith, Adam will
only find entries whose name is exactly Smith, Adam. It will not find Smith, Adam T.
Please use the fields below to refine your search. Note that while none of
the fields are mandatory, you'll get better results if you refine your search.
Also, to keep the system running smoothly, the search will return a maximum of 1000 items.
