BRECKINRIDGE COUNTY, KENTUCKY CEMETERIES
MATTHEWS/BURCH CEMETERY

This cemetery was initially transcribed on Sept. 30, 1987. It became neglected and overgrown until descendants came in and cleaned it up
in April, 2000. In cleaning it up, they found and unearthed stones as well as repaired those and any others needing repairs and took care of
transcriptions needing to be done. This cemetery holds the remains of George Matthews and Benjamin Burch, along with the descendants of both men.
The complete registration was submitted to the Breckinridge County Archives for their records by Wayne Meador and Francis Keenan on May 1, 2000.
