Coker Cemetery
Established ~ 1881
Limestone, Hardee Co, Florida


 

From Arcadia ~ located off of CR 661 (update: 661 turns into 663 as you enter Hardee Co), turn right on Jim Williams Rd. (dirt road), go about 3 miles and turn left on Warren Rd. just after the sharp curve. A large fenced gate on left, enter orange grove and go 24 rows in, turn right and go until entering a clearing. The cemetery is located in this clearing. This cemetery is on private property, however the owner allows visitors as long as there is no abuse done to the grove or cemetery. Also, you are required to close the gate when entering and exiting. 

This cemetery was surveyed on 30 Sept 1998 by Janine Rickner & Phyllis Borden
