Thanks, I find the name of 5 cemeteries.

Lane County Cemeteries
Cemetery USGS Map

Dighton Dighton
Shields Shields NW
Sutton Amy SE
Thomas Dighton SE
White Rock Pendennis

It looks like there are no listings or searchable database for any cemeteries in Lane County.
I did find out that Dighton is the county seat of Lane County. Lane Co., broke off from Finney County in 1877. Population of Lane county in 1880 was 632, and in the year 1882, the population had fallen off to 352.
I wonder what happened that people left the county, or was there an illness that killed off half the population in two years.??

Thanks for your help.
Mary
