Important information:

The contents of "Allamakee County, Iowa Burial Grounds 1845-1988 ", by Dale P. Woodmansee, have been made available on this web site with the permission of Mrs. Woodmansee. We thank her for her generosity. Transcription of the Woodmansee book, which is over 900 pages, was completed through the efforts of a team of volunteer transcribers & proof-readers: Kay Brumbaugh, Dorothy Buck, Linda Earnheart, Sharyl Ferrall, Sue Kenyon, Donna Kumpf, Gayle Little, Nancy McClain, Jan Miller, Candy Nelson, JoLynne Bockman and Roxanne Barth. This was a huge undertaking and we thank them for the time and effort that was involved.

To find your ancestor's burial place, use the search engine located on the Allamakee co. home page, look in the every-name index, or browse individual cemeteries (below).

Dale Woodmansee performed a wonderful service in surveying all the tombstones in the cemeteries in Allamakee county and publishing the data; but with any undertaking of this magnitude, there likely are errors, conflicting information or descrepancies. User-contributed information has been added on the Woodmansee Notes pages.
