I found the Parrish Cemetery several years ago, spending most of an afternoon looking for it after finding WPA records in the Shelbyville Library. My ggg-grandmother, Deborah (Leach) Swinford, is buried there. The marker says: "Swinford, Debo (wife of J.M.)" (John Milton Swinford, my ggg-grandfather), but I could not find the marker again the last time I was there for the overgrowth of weeds and Yucca plants. I'm thinking of borrowing a weed wacker the next time I'm back in Indiana!

If I recall, don't you take the Old Columbus Road (Miller Street) south out of Shelbyville straight to Fenns? Only an elevator and a few buildins are left there. If you are looking for the cemetery, known as the Parrish cemetery, go through Fenns, bear right as the road curves, and then turn sharply back left. The cemetery is on the left side on a little hill. (My Dad said that there used to be a church next to the cemetery.) My great great grandfather Henry Phillips is buried there. I believe Fenns used to be a railroad loading site.

All the maps I looked at this morning show that if you go south from Shelbyville on Route 9, you can not turn left onto 450S, only right (going west). Did you mean right?

Go south down St. Rd. 9 to county rd. 450 s.turn left and it looks like its about 2 or 3 miles, you should run right into it. It's mainly a big abandoned elevator and a couple of houses.
