• Virginia Cemetery, South Cherry Co, rural Mullen NE

  The first piece of land was platted and donated for a cemetery in the spring of 1904. The First Addition was opened in 1928, the Second Addition in 1960, and theThird Addition was purchased in 1976. In 1973 an alphabetical list and card file was begun from existing records. A numerical listing of burials and owners of lots was prepared. A complete listing was prepared in 2000 by the Hooker County Genealogy Society and the Cedarview Cemetery Association. Due to the lack of accurate record keeping, there are unknown and unmarked graves in the older section. Copies of the Cedarview Cemetery Book or lookups are available from the Genealogical Society.
