The Hancock County Historical Society has
been working hard to catalog every possible cemetery in the county, and to
create an inventory of all people buried in one of the county cemeteries.
This database is still a work in progress, records will be added as they
become available.

Hancock County Cemetery Index (12275 records)
Below is a list of all the cemeteries and graveyards in Hancock County, as known to us. Click on an individual cemetery name to go to that cemetery's page. You will find directions, pictures for some, and - if indexed - an inventory of people buried there ordered by grave layout, so you might find out who's buried in close proximity. Not all cemeteries were indexed this way, but we did the best we could.
