City of Mattoon
Cemetery Deed Records
for Dodge Grove Cemetery
1887-1897
These are the actual cemetery deeds and were signed by both the mayor and city clerk of Mattoon through the years.
The deeds are a printed form that has blanks to fill in (see below for the wording of the deed) The individual's
name is hand written 4 times within the document, so this has helped for accuracy in transcribing. Names are occasionally
spelled differently within the same document, which I have tried to note whenever that has occurred. As
with all online or printed transcriptions, you are advised to check the original records for yourself.
