	This cemetery is on private property. Obtain permission from property owner before visiting this cemetery.
	Directions:
	This cemetery is very difficult to find without a GPS devise. I’ll try to give some directions here, but save the harsh words if you try to find this cemetery without a GPS and can’t. Go east of Roachdale on US 236 to Co Rd 450E, which is the first road to the right past the Roachdale Cemetery. Go south on 450E about 1½ mile to Co Rd 1100N. Turn left and follow 1100N east to the bottom of the hill. If you cross Big Walnut Bridge, you’ve gone too far. At the bottom of the hill the woods end and there is a field to the left (north). Go through the gates (after obtaining permission)  and follow the lane on the west edge of the field as it winds its way more or less north along the edge of the field. Eventually you will come to an east/west line fence. Hop the fence and continue north through another cultivated field to the northwest corner of that field. Go up the hill to the northwest. The cemetery is at the top of the hill, just west of the north/south fence.
	Condition: Fair
	Cemetery is in woods. The standing trees are not much of a threat, and in fact are shading the area which keeps the weeds down. It wouldn’t hurt to mow the area. I’m convinced there are more stones. Most of the existing stones are in good shape. There are a few that have broken in half that should be repaired.
	The number at the left of each name corresponds with the map of the cemetery.
