UNDERWOOD CEMETERY, MERCER COUNTY, MO

Underwood Cemetery is located in Morgan Township, Mercer County, Missouri, approximately three miles northeast of Princeton. From Princeton, go three and one-half miles north on Highway 65 to the second gravel road to the right (east). Turn right. The road will turn back to the south. Go south approximately one mile. The cemetery is on the left (east) side of the road.

Although the cemetery is well maintained and is still in periodic use, many of the stones have fallen and are now sinking, worn and unreadable. Many of the graves are now unmarked. This should not be considered a complete list of burials.

This survey was conducted by Phil & Kathi Stewart on September 22, 2003.
