Twp 6, Sec 15

Contributed by Russell Miracle, Jan 05, 2003 [russellmiracle@yahoo.com] Total records = 339.

Friendship cemetery can be reaches by driving north out of Preston on the main Rte for one mile, then left for 2½ mi and you will see the cemetery on your right, or the north side of the road.

Friendship Cemetery is owned and maintained by Carmi Township.

In 1976 I went to the cemetery and collected records from the sexton and some from headstones. This transcription includes all known headstones up to the year 1976.
