Cemetery Records Guide

The cemetery listings below were provided, in part, courtesy of the now archived U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
The GNIS was comprised of all geographic names for all known places, features, and areas in the Unites States that were identified by a proper name, such as a cemetery. The GNIS system of classifying proper place names was discontinued in 2014 but their legacy remains.
A total of 22 cemeteries for Dukes County are listed. This directory is by no means meant to be an all inclusive directory of all cemeteries on Martha's Vineyard.
Embedded links to the cemeteries have been researched and provided by us @ mass-doc.com. In all cases, we tried to find direct links to the actual cemetery office. Many of these cemeteries are no longer active so we chose links that would give you the most information. If you find a more appropriate link than what is provided, please email us and we can update this page. Our email address is at the bottom of this page.
