One area which is about 1/3 of the cemetery the northwest part was covered in Poison Ivy. I tried my best not to touch it as it highly poisonous to some folks. I did everything Icould to secure the photos and still avoid the stuff and succeeded in avoiding the Ivy and yet I missed a few gravestones I ordinarily would have seen & photographed, ones which had fallen and requires scrounging around to find. Because of this I also skipped the King Cemetery across the way from this one, but will go back sometime in the winter time for that one. Since cattle roam freely there then if that is true then the poison Ivy is likely trampled down. See Findagrave.com for more photos here on this cemetery. However some of the above listings were for now unmarked grave listings.

Photographed on a Saturday evening 16 Apr 2015. The inscriptions were updated with exceptions found or known by C. Wayne Austin. This publication culminated from various sources. Listed on page 11-12 of the book Lincoln County County Cemeteries by Tim & Helen Marsh, abt 1978. Added here 14 May 2015. Also found on Findagrave.com with a few more tombstone specific photos
