An ownership transfer on a cemetery plot is not a simple name change. It involves verifying the current holder's identity or estate status, confirming the legal authority of the person requesting the transfer, and issuing a new deed that supersedes the original while preserving the chain of title. CemSites cemetery deed management software records each transfer as a discrete event in the plot's ownership history, capturing who transferred to whom, on what date, and under what authority.
The transfer record links to the supporting documentation. The authorization letter, court order, or estate document that authorized the transfer is accessible from the deed record itself. When a future inquiry arises about how a plot changed hands, the answer is in the system with documentation attached.
