One is on Sulpher Springs road at the top of the hill, but I have not been to this one. The other is located off of Highway M. I have been to this one, but have to go back to transcribe it. In other words, I do not remember the name of the road it is located on. Take Highway 55 to the M exit & head west, away from Barnhart. About two miles, on the left hand side of the road, is a little bridge that heads up the hill to the graveyard. It deadends at a house, but the cemetery is located by a church. You can see the church from highway M in the Fall, but may be obstructed by trees in the Summer. You know you missed the exit if you see the old Spielberg building on the right. I have better info on this cemetery, somewhere in my notes, but cannot find them right now. Perhaps my wife is correct in her statement that I need to "clean" my spare room ;~) Desoto Joe/The Record Man
