Compiled and submitted by Frederica Burt Wyatt , July 6, 2000.

Many hours have been expended in attempting to identify unmarked graves within Kimble County, but the final resting places for a number of persons remain unsolved. On the other hand, we know of persons burid within the county, but are unsure of the exact location of their graves. Perhaps, some day, these mysteries will be cleared, but in the interest of posterity, the following list is included here. fbw

Note: On September 13, 1997, Ruth Gallaway Shoemaker of Eustis, Florida, gave us the following information: Her great-grandfather, Jacob P. Gallaway was born about 1852 and probably died in 1881 in Kimble County. A daughter, A. L. was born about 1878 and died about the same time as her father. The Gallaway family is listed in Precinct 1 of the 1880 Kimble County Census, and it is thought the father and daughter died the following year. Other members of the family removed to their old home in West Newton, Pennsylvania.
