Hernando County Cemeteries

(compilation of historical articles)



This page is under construction as information is constantly becoming available.  This page includes cemetery history's in addition to other historical information pertaining to Pasco and Hernando Counties.  As this site expands we will add lists of burials for each cemetery with the history of the communities that formed around them. Some of the cemeteries listed have since been destroyed and in some cases have homes and businesses built on them while others remain in unfit conditions; very little remains of them.  Any site marked as a ghost cemetery refers to a cemetery that has not been relocated but upon inspection of the site there is no cemetery, these cemeteries have been documented through historical accounts.  In some cases these sites may have been developed.  

This page will be updated on a regular basis so please check back for pictures, maps and any updated historical information and articles.  Any information contained on this page may not be reproduced without written consent of the author.  Copyright ©2003-2008

Anyone with questions, comments, or additional information can contact the page designer Jeff Cannon
