Map to Mt Comfort

This land, and the 120 acre parcel north of it was (and may still be) owned by Vincent Cahalan in 1999.

John & Patricia Dill visited this cemetery during the summer of 1998.  It is located on the Vincent Cahalan property near the Newton County, line. It is located several miles south of Pierce City. 

They located 17 stones with some form of inscription (James & Sarah Hudson are on the same stone - with two different inscriptions).  There were a number of graves, marked only with fieldstones and  it is likely that a lot more graves were not marked in any way, there may also have been more that were missed.  This is the basic information they obtained was from the headstones.
