    1. Re: [Barrett-Reuben-SC] Mississippi Cemetery search
    2. Gayle, my mother just called me back and said that there is another Good Hope Cemetery in Scott County. The one I gave you directions to is in Neshoba County. Anyway, according to Mother some Barretts are buried at the one in Scott County. She said that she went to a funeral there once. I bet this is the one you're interested in. She said that it is in the Ludlow community of Scott County. She said that Uncle Lee Barrett, that's one of William Lafayett (Bud) Barrett's sons, moved his family there and some of that group were buried there. Also, my grandfather, Oscar Harrison Barrett, lived there for a few years....near his brother, Lee. While there, my grandfather and grandmother had a son who died in infancy. He is buried at the Good Hope Cemetery at Ludlow. If you are really interested in finding the cemetery, call the main funeral home in Forest, Mississippi (main town in Scott County) and they will be able to tell you where it is. Forest is a small town. I doubt that there is more than one or two funeral homes. That's the way I've found cemeteries when I didn't know where they were. Good luck, Sarah Barrett Everage
