house to the left (west). Go west past this house to the fence. Turn north
and follow the fence to the woods. Then turn left (west) and go through
another field, with the field to your left and the woods to your right. After
about 100 yards, the woods will end and there will be an opening in the
fence. Go north through this opening and follow the path going north to the

Cemetery is in a fenced in area in the woods at the edge of a
pasture. The fence is in bad shape. I cut the sapling trees and cleaned the
cemetery 2001. I mow the cemetery several times each summer. I reset the
leaning stones in 2003 and set a flagpole. My gr gr gr grandfather Madison
Keck is buried in the cemetery. He is a veteran of the Civil War and it is
important to me this cemetery be maintained |
