The Cemeteries Under Lake Cumberland and Russell County, Kentucky, Death Records, 1852-1858, 1874, 1878, 1903-04
"In the early 1940's the United States Army Corps of Engineers began acquiring some 56,830 acres of land for the Wolf Creek Dam, built near the city of Jamestown, Kentucky in Russell County. The 105 mile long Lake Cumberland Reservoir begins near Jamestown, Kentucky and extends through parts of Wayne and Pulaski Counties in Kentucky. During the land acquisition, eighty-four cemeteries within the project were to be relocated. In the early part of 1980, a crack was detected deep in the bottom of the concrete Dam, resulting in the lowering of the water level of the Lake to make the necessary repairs. Due to the low water level, a cemetery was exposed on an island in the middle of the lake in August, 1980 which raised many questions as to whether the cemeteries had indeed been relocated."--p. I.
