Naponee, NE Cemetery Transcriptions


In going through my mother-in-law (Peg Lewin)'s things following her death, I found the following cemetery transcription done by Mildred Burnham O'Neill (Peg's mother)in 1936. I hope it will be of some help to those researching their ancestry in Naponee, NE. I also found a History of Naponee done by Mrs. O'Neill about the same time, that I hope to add to this page soon.
