Caples Cemetery

also known as Amazonia Cemetery 

or Boston Hill Cemetery

Amazonia, Lincoln Township, Section 36 South

Andrew County, Missouri 

This is the western end of the cemetery, starting with stones that are in the row along the west side of a fenced plot that ends Section 3.  Most rows are shortened by the end of Section 4, which includes all of the stone on the northern slope from the central ridge.  There is an open area without stones.  The cemetery drive is the boundary to the west and south of this section.  There is a marked-off plot near the southwest corner, but there are no stones in it.
