Grave that is marked by a stone

3 graves marked by stones

Marked by Funeral Home markers (unreadable)

***Note***

Columbus Shook, John & Abby Shook, Nola Shook, and Alliefair "Shook"     Sergant are buried  in this cemetery, but the graves are marked by large stones my grandmother and other ones in the family are unsure which is their graves. The Shooks are my grandmother's family on her mother side. There is two unmarked graves behind Jancie Robinette & Martha Brock's graves, they could be John & Abby Shook's grave. Martha Brock was their daughter. It is possible that she was buried at the foot of them. Columbus, Nola, and Alliefair were children of John and Abby Shook.
