Hello everyone,

Burials in Sutter Cemetery for surnames beginning with "W" are now online.
Remember that several dates on this list are incorrect. Burials before 1899
may show up as burials in the 1900s (quite often exactly 100 years off), but
the questionable ones are usually easy to spot because most of them do not
have a day or month listed. For example, Dulcena Wadsworth is listed with a
burial date of 1963 (no day or month). Dulcena was actually buried in 1863,
so this one is 100 years off. Some of the pre-1900 burials are also listed
with an 1898 or 1899 date. For example, Ann Thompson is listed with a burial
date of 1898 but she actually died in 1892. It takes a little bit of
detective work on your part of figure out what is correct. The dates after
1928 (with date, month and year) listed) should be correct.

Are you completely confused yet? Please use this list only as a guideline
for now. Hopefully some day we will be able to correct the problem by
obtaining records of a cemetery survey to merge with this list.

Happy hunting!
