Is anyone familiar with a Hebron Cemetery, supposedly located 3 miles or so southeast of Higbee? A friend of mine in Higbee is seeking info on such a cemetery based on obits he's found. In my years of tromping around the vicinity I've never run across such a graveyard which would be somewhere along the Randolph/Howard Co line I would think. Names he's given me recently sounds like Mt. Pleasant Christian Church farther down in Howard Co on Rte A, which he wonders was once called Hebron -- which I've never heard of. The nearest graveyards thereabouts that I know of are the Floyd family cemetery, Fairvew over on Rte T, etc. I've suggested he seek the 2-vol Howard Co cemetery book, too.

Hebron Cemetery is west of College Mound just a short distance. I do not know the name of the roads. Others in the area will. It is slightly to the south of the road between College Mound and Kaseyville. Hebron Christian Church is in front of the cemetery. If you need a list of the people buried there, I could give you someone's name but please contact me off the list. I have several ancestors buried in the cemetery.

At least there is one on the west side of Thomas Hill Lake on Route T. and it is just north of the Macon County line. It is a small rural cemetery that is nicely kept and is south of the highway about 1 mile or so. It is just west of the main body of the lake
