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 knowe-mail and I will post their names and data.

This cemetery was recorded by Sharon Grissett.
She recorded the cemetery starting from the far right.
That way a person can walk in and find who they are looking for.
They are sectioned off by roads, drives, old parts and new parts.
