| Directions: | |||||||||||||
| Go south of Belle Union on Co Rd 825E for 3 ½ miles. Co Rd 850S will come in from the west. At this point, go east down a lane about ¼ mile to some barns and grain bins. Then go east though the field and into the woods. Keeping the east/west fence to your right, continue through the woods about 200-300 yards to the cemetery, which is almost where the woods end at another field to the east. | |||||||||||||
| Condition: Poor | |||||||||||||
| Cemetery is in woods near the edge of a field. There are two monolith stones in a wrought iron fence. The stones are in good condition, but the fence is not. There is also a tablet stone between these two stones leaning against a small tree. In addition, there is at least one more monolith stone outside the fence that has fallen off its base. The area is covered with briars and needs to be mowed. There are a few trees around that need to be cut. We cut the sapling trees and mowed the area 2003. There are still a few trees that should be cut before they fall on the stones and there are a few stones that should be reset. | |||||||||||||
