Unnamed Cemetery, Leon County
 




Unnamed/Unknown Cemetery

     

Visited 3/12/2001, transcribed by Vickie Stevens

This cemetery is located off Woodville Hwy, on the left as you approach the State Forest sign, about 1/4 mile into the woods. It has many graves that are sunken into the ground and although there are a few recent burials it is not well maintained.

Some of the oldest burials appear to be from the English and Reshard familes. Many graves around the few English family stones are sunken and this appears to be the oldest section. The oldest burial is around 1917 and based on the sunken graves possibly some older than that.

One grave is under a large bush and the stone is unreadable and it appears that an animal of some kind has made a home in the bush on top of the grave, most likely a deer.
Another grave is inside a small fence and is over grown and the stone and grave are sunken.
30-40 unmarked graves scattered through out the cemetery
