Leann Cemetery
From the Photo Files of Jay Trace In Leann the main intersection is State Hwy 39 and County Road 2080. Go west on 2080 and stop right before it curves north. If you go too far on 2080, it looks like it dead ends right where it stops on this map.

A Grave Story The story is that a hobo died and since there was no place to bury him, Henry Thomas gave him a grave site. Toni Roush said this: "I took my mother, Nola Thomas Getty Zapart to Leann yesterday. I had her show me where the Hobo's grave was at. It is on the south side of Henry M. Thomas grave and west of McCubbin grave. I think the tombstone said Avin and not sure what the wife's name was. There is a flat rock laying there for the Hobo's tombstone with no name on it. As near as she knows he died sometime in the late 1917 to 1919. Toni Getty Roush. May 22, 2008 |
