Hi Vada, According to my list of cemeteries in Coles county, there is no Upper Ash Church. In checking the GNIS, I didn't find an Upper Ash Church or Cemetery. The closest I could find is an Ash Grove Cemetery in Shelby county. Hope this helps!

Today we found and obit of her great-great grandfather, John W. Shadows who died in 1963. He was buried in the cemetery next to the Upper Ash Church is all the obit said. Can anyone tell us where this cemetery is? Thanks alot. Vada in Terre Haute, Indiana LadyAce30@aol.com
