About This Resource:
Brattons Cemetery is located on Route 39 in Bath County approximately 2
miles south of the town of Goshen. Continue on Route 42 and it will change to Route 39 in the town of
Goshen, continue on Route 39 and when you go up a large hill the cemetery will be on the left side of
the road (about 2 miles). The cemetery itself is on the side of a hill and is very old and while still
in use today is not in the best of condition. There are lots of tombstones that are either moss covered
or unreadable from time and the elements. The oldest part of the cemetery is at the bottom of the hill
to the left of the entrance where there are members of the Bratton family interred.
The cemetery was read and imaged in October 2004. The database and associated images are the copyrighted work of William E. Wilson, Jr. who generously supplied them to the Allen County Public Library for distribution to individual genealogical researchers.
About Searching This Resource:
This resource doesn't store the surname separately from the first name,
so you'll have to enter your search like this:
The search engine will try to be as flexible as possible. Therefore, if Use Fuzzy Search is
set to Yes (which it is by default), the search engine will
match partial names. If you search for Smith, the engine will find
anything that has Smith in it. It would find Smith, Adam, Smithson, Ted, etc.
If you set Use Fuzzy Search to No, then searching for Smith, Adam will
only find entries whose name is exactly Smith, Adam. It will not find Smith, Adam T.
Please use the fields below to refine your search. Note that while none of
the fields are mandatory, you'll get better results if you refine your search.
Also, to keep the system running smoothly, the search will return a maximum of 1000 items.
