Hi, Bentley History from the book "Historic Sites and Structures of Hancock co, IL", 1979 --- no mention of a Burnette cemetery -- just a mention of A.B. Burnett Store (on Main street (hwy) between 1st and 2nd street), later became site of the A.L. Casburn Ford Agency, and then the W.H. Smith Ford and IHC Agency. Maybe the Burnett family has a family cemetery near the town of Bentley. Hope this helps a little, Mary Ann Scott Horton HaydenDan@aol.com wrote: > > In a message dated 11/11/1999 10:45:16 AM Pacific Standard Time, > shawnnee@jps.net writes: > > << Can anyone tell me if there is a Burnette cemetary in Bentley.
