The Concord Cemetery is very easy to find as long as your looking for the sign. I tend to miss it everytime I visit there, but that's because I'm always looking at the countryside. (A branch of my family owned a lot of the land in that area and are buried in Concord [Underwoods]) It is kept in relatively good shape by the Concord Cemetery Association. Some stones have been upended and/or missing. There are supposed to be several Chancellors buried there, but I haven't found any proof that that is true. Coming from Highway 15, the cemetery will be on your left side. You'll see it from a distance, but not when you are at the gravel road leading to it. I haven't visited the South Bethel ME Cemetery (next on my list), by it looks like it could be a chore in rainy weather because it is on a dirt road about a quarter of a mile off of M. Shouldn't be too hard to find since the map shows a church near it. At least you don't have to go to the Toombs Cemetery. I went there last year and ended up hiking about a mile in a cow pasture to find it, in July. As someone else has said, go to the County Clerk's office and ask for a county map. ($1) They'll be able to show you on that map where the cemeteries are, even if the cemetery isn't listed on the map (Toombs isn't). -- David Shelton Ancestory website http://www.interl.net/~davestoy/des/aqwx.htm Researching the surnames of: BILLS CLARK CLINE FRUIT/FRUITT/PRUITT HOBSON RUSSELL SHELTON SMITH WILLIAMSON GOLLIHER Have information for: ALBRECHT/ALBRIGHT DEAN/DEEN FAUST/FOUST ROCKHOLD TENNEY/TINNEY UNDERWOOD
