    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4AB.2ACI/585.1 Message Board Post: The New Castle Cemetery on Highway 55/421 one-half mile north of New Castle is a public cemetery. It is governed by a board of directors and is open for the burial of anyone who owns a lot in it. There are five other cemeteries either in town or very near town. 1. Behind the New Castle Christian Church. Cemetery was destroyed in late 50s or early 60s and made into a baseball field/park. 2. At the corner of Church and Center Streets. Cemetery was beside the "Old White Rock" Baptist Church. 3. A private cemetery no longer used for burials. 4. A cemetery for black citizens of this area. 5. A cemetery for paupers of the county.
