Tombstone Photos exist for the names in bold

Scott Co, IA Gravestone
Photo Project
(If you don't find a photos for other persons
below then they were buried without headstone or stone was broken and entirely
unreadable. Many stones in this cemetery are in disrepair.)
Please note the very small sign on the
gate reads "Chapel Hill Cemetery". Best approach is:
" go west from Davenport on River Drive (which is Hwy 61) towards Blue
Grass, IA. At the first crossroad beyond the I-280 interchange, turn
left or south on 110th Avenue. Then turn left or east on the first crossroad
which is 130th Street, also called Chapel Hill Road. Follow 130th Street east
abt 1 mile to where it starts bending to the right. Chapel Hill Cemetery is
barely visible on the left behind a few houses."--driving instructions
