Directions: |
|
|
|
Find the Huffman
Covered Bridge on a map. At the west end of the bridge is the intersection of
Co Rd 1075S and Co Rd 600W. Go south on 600W about ¼ mile. Just before the
road goes under Interstate 70, there is a dead end road going off to the
right. Follow this road up to the old white house. From the house, go due
east through the old pasture about 100 yards to the cemetery. |

We restored this
cemetery in 2003 with the help of several descendants. The cemetery needs to
be mowed periodically. Several of the stones are in the power line right of
way and could be damaged if the power company need to cut trees that are
allowed to grow in the right of way. |
