You said, "This is a deeded Cemetery, dating from 1847. If >> a Cemetery has a deed or an EXCEPTION on the property deed, no taxes are >> due or payable by anyone." Jack, I don't know if those rules apply here. In this particular situation, the person who held the original land grant conveyed to trustees of a church 1 1/2 acres and sixteen square rods. Part of the land was used for a church, and beside the church a cemetery was established. This occurred about 150 years ago. In the 1920's an adjoining parcel was given by more original land grantees (and their heirs) to the trustees of the cemetery (not the church) for an addition. The records of the early trustees are not among the cemetery documents. In the 1920's a cemetery association was set up pursuant to orders of the county commissioners. When the church was no longer used, the county sold it for taxes. The land description was ambiguous, but it did mention 1.6 acres. The new owner of the church property appears to believe his new purchase includes the original plot of the cemetery. There was no survey done. No taxes have yet been sought on the addition. So the problem for me is, even though the county COULDN'T sell the cemetery, I fear it MAY HAVE. Does the COULDN'T nullify the POSSIBLY DID?
