The members have been greatly reduced by the organization of Locust Grove congregation, and also Newhope congregation, and by a number moving away. They now number only about 35 members.

There are two Mt. Pleasant Cemeteries in Howard County. The Coutts and Boggs cemetery book lists Mt Pleasant Church Cemetery as T51, R14, S21, Route A South Higbee in Boone Femme Township. Church is active. Cemetery fenced and well kept. There was listed one Sterns burial and that was fairly recent. It was for Gerald W. Stearns Jr., born and died 1984. No Quisenberry's. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mt. Pleasant Cemetery, T49/48 R 16 S 20, Highway 5 North of New Franklin one mile on right side of road. This cemetery has both back ad white persons buried within the cemetery with no discrimination as to location. However, it shows no Stern or Quisenberry burials. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Kathy B. ----- Original Message ----- From: "laura crane" <lcrane@coin.org> To: <MOHOWARD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 03, 2003 11:36 PM Subject: Re: [MOHOWARD-L] Re: MOHOWARD-D Digest V03 #21 > My Lloyds are buried at the Mt.
