Cemetery History

Old Methodist Cemetery had been the primary burying ground for the original Methodist Church. In 1858, it's congregation dismantled the church building and relocated it about 2 miles west in the town center of Coram. Today, it still stands there as "Trinity United Methodist Church". When the church was moved, the congregation began using a new burying ground, "Trinity Methodist Cemetery".

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
