This cemetery is on private property. Obtain permission from property owner before visiting this cemetery.

Directions:

Go west out of Greencastle on West Walnut Street Road to Co Rd 450W. Turn right (north) and go about 2 miles to the T, which is Co Rd 50N. Turn left (west) and cross a bridge to a T. Turn right and go north about 1/2 mile to Parker Brothers Stone. From the office, the cemetery is about 1/4 mile southeast, up a hill and into the field. Go to the southernmost point in the field where there are several stones. The stones overlook the barn and grain bin.

Condition: Fair

This cemetery was extensively overgrown with briars. We cut the briars and treated the stumps. We were then able to find several more stones not listed in earlier readings. Owner seems willing to maintain the area now that it has been cleaned.
