Cemeteries we have seen referenced in obituaries or newspaper articles, which either are (1) an alternate name for an existing cemetery, or (2) have ceased to exist, or (3) were referred to in error :  

Birkville - probably the same as Mt. Olive Cemetery
Brighton 
Hayes
- probably the same as Mt. Olive Cemetery.  The land was owned by Marion Hays.
Patterson's
- perhaps one of the Lenora cemeteries?
Spring Green
-  in Furnas County, Nebraska.  

If you have any information on these cemeteries, please let me know.  Ardie
