Bethlehem
Traveling south from
Take a left turn onto highway
63 south and continue on it for 6.0 miles. Here you will come to
Barton/Agricola road, take a left hand turn and go 1.4 tenths on the
Barton/Agricola road and the cemetery will be on your left side. There
is a new
chain link fence across the front and a short ways down both sides of
the
cemetery.
The cemetery is overgrown with grass and weeds and many graves need
maintenance done to them. There were many unmarked graves and others
the slabs
were
deteriorated to the point no information was readable. Some clearing of
brush and trees and the new fence indicates maintenance has been started and hopefully
will be completed in the near
future. I was given permission to walk this cemetery on April 26th,
2007 by Mr. Solly Cowan, and all
information was taken from
headstone inscriptions and temporary grave markers.
