Cemeteries in Dawes County, NE

We list 13 cemeteries in Dawes County, Nebraska. Small family burial grounds recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey are included, so the count is higher than the number of cemeteries with an office or staff.

Death certificates are held by the Nebraska vital records office and often the county clerk or health department. Individual cemeteries keep their own interment records; church cemeteries may keep them at the parish office. County historical and genealogical societies often have transcriptions of older cemeteries.

Many family cemeteries sit on private land. Ask the landowner before visiting. Nebraska law may give descendants a right of reasonable access, but the rules and process vary by state.
