Evergreen Cemetery, Bisbee, AZ

Many Croatians were miners in Bisbee, Arizona, around the turn of the century. This list of approximately 100 names, below, was extracted by Tom Ninkovich from a complete list of those buried in the Evergreen Cemetery, near Bisbee.

Tom says, "These are the ones that seemed most probably Slavic. If I was in doubt, I erred on the side of including the name. So there may very well be names in this list that are not actually of Slavic origin. Also, many of these names are Serbian or Montenegran, instead of Croatian. Anything in brackets [] is a comment from me."

The complete original lists can be found in these two files:

http://www.mycochise.com/lowell1.html
http://www.mycochise.com/lowell2.html

which are maintained by the Cochise County Genealogical Society. Information on how to contact the Society can be found at the bottom of either of the 2 files. The 2 files together total 2157 names.

Below is the introductory paragraph that appears at the top of the 2 original lists.
Lowell Evergreen Cemetery. This is a large cemetery, located at Lowell, Arizona, a short distance southeast of Bisbee in Cochise County.
