what type of records can I obtain from a cemetary

My grandfathers grave was recently found in Iowa. I was curious what type of records the cemetary might be able to share with us? Have any ideas??

One thought on “what type of records can I obtain from a cemetary”

  1. Usually the basics: Burial certificate, Cemetery Plot # who paid for plot, When stone was purchased it/who bought it, sometimes they may have an obit clipping or tell you where to get it from. Don’t forget to contact the funeral home they may have other records.
