This cemetery is on private property. Obtain permission from property owner before visiting this cemetery.
Directions:
Go south of Greencastle on Co Rd 25W to the intersection with Co Rd 400S. Go west on 400S for just a bit. The road will curve south and become 50W. From this corner, follow 50W south for exactly one mile. There is a fencerow running to the west, with a field on the north side and a small wooded area on the south. Follow the fencerow west about 300 yards. The area to the south will become thicker woods. The cemetery is on the west end of these woods with a field to the north and west.
Condition: Poor
A neighbor said this cemetery was well maintained until several years ago. It is in an open area at the edge of some woods and is fenced. Weeds are bad. Needs to be mowed.
