Andes Cemetery in Andes, Delaware County, New York is not in the standard listing. This is not Andes Rural Cemetery in Andes Village, Delaware County which Family Search uses Rural Cemetery for.

    @Daniel Liddle,

    Because FamilySearch Family Tree works with standardized locations, if you discover that a specific location you wish to include on the records of your ancestors does not come up when you type the location, please consider requesting that it be added to the standardized list as described in the following knowledge article.

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-request-a-new-place-in-the-database-of-standardized-places

    In the meantime, were you aware that you can type a location and then hit the spacer bar and then click on the closest standardized location to be sure a place is showing a standard in Family Tree? When you look at your ancestor's page, you will see what you typed, but when you click Edit you will see what standardized location has been selected to eliminate any Data Problems that might generate because the system is not "reading" a standard location. This additional knowledge article explains about this work-around which can be used for now.

    We appreciate your efforts to provide information that is timely and accurate and wish you success with your continued family history efforts.
