The Church is across a small ditch, so the cemetery
is not really in the churchyard.

If you have access to any cemetery listings or tombstone photographs from Sunflower County, and you are willing to share them with your fellow researchers, please let me know.  I would like to have listings and photos for all of the cemeteries in the county.
Our thanks to Sharon Grissette who walked this cemetery
and contributed the following.

 

If you have access to any cemetery listings or tombstone photographs from Sunflower  County and you are willing to share them with your fellow researchers, please let me know.  I would like to have listings and photos for all of the cemeteries in the county.  Suggested corrections and/or additions will be noted in RED.   The original data will not be removed.  Do you know of others buried here?
Let me know and I will post their names and data.
