Today we visited the New Maysville Cemetery, but being city slickers, we got lost fast! The directions in the cemetery records book at the Putnam County Library said "to SR 36 and turn east. Go approximately (8) miles to 500E, turn north, follow the road (2) miles into New Maysville.". We drove on 500 E and encountered a "T" in the road that was not mentioned in the directions, not to mention that the road we then encountered was some other number. Do we go right or left, we pondered. We turned right, drove down a gravel road for a mile or two, and then fortunately we found someone to ask! We followed their directions that sent us on into New Maysville, but the road number was not one that had been mentioned in the book. Also, the 2000 Indiana Highway map that we had made it appear that a road right in the middle of Groveland ran right up north to New Maysville. Well, give or take a mile or two, or three, it did, but it sure would lose anyone unfamiliar with the area, like us! We came back on 665, which was curvey in spots, but at least it was paved. I think I will post to the list for directions BEFORE I attempt to visit any countryside cemetery again, so that the locals can enlighten me! But it was a pleasure to see such nicely maintained cemeteries and encounter helpful residents! Laura E.
