We will begin the
trip to this cemetery on main street (old hwy. 98) in Lucedale, Miss.
Take
Turn left on highway 613 and
go approximately 4.0 miles, you will pass
the first dirt road to the
right and on your right is a small very dense partial of woods. I was
able to
identify only 5 headstones in the
cemetery.
There are remnants of many wooden markers, however, the termites have
long since removed any signs of lettering from them. The cemetery is in
very
bad condition , really impossible to see many parts of it. I have
spoken to a
Mrs. Barbara (Mallette) Eley, who is a
relative of some of those
buried in this cemetery. She is to provide me
with a copy of names of those known to be buried in this cemetery. I
will list
the ones I actually was
able to transcribe information from first and then will
make a note as to the other names I am providing.
