    3. None that I know within 1 mile, but quite a few within 2 miles: Chapman Cemetery - Callaway County - GNIS had this mistakenly listed as Chatman Cemetery. http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=39.03167&lon=-91.66028&datum=NAD27&s=50&size=l Distance = 1.95 miles. Direction = SW (216 degrees) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Martinsburg Cemetery - Audrain County - http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=39.08194&lon=-91.64694&datum=NAD27&s=50&size=l Distance = 1.93 miles. Direction = NNW (348 degrees) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Todd Cemetery - Callaway County - THIS MAY NOT BE THE CORRECT LOCATION: http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=39.05056&lon=-91.67333&datum=NAD27&s=50&size=l Distance = 1.84 miles. Direction = W (261 degrees) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 records Sounds like you might already know about some of these.
