Well, if you're going from Ste. Genevieve, you will travel out Hwy 32 towards Farmington. Make a left on Hwy B, just over Hwy 55. Follow Hwy B to Coffman where it will basically deadend with two other highways: F to the right and WW to the left. Turn left on WW and follow that around the new Crown Winery, you'll be passing several fields of grapevines. The road to the cemetery will be on your left. The last time I was there was about 2 years ago, honestly, and then it was padlocked with a sign. However, Audrey Steffee just sent me several photos of the cemetery (for http://stegenevieve.net/cemeteries/cem-oldstone.htm) and she said that she was there a year ago, and there was no padlocking, etc. If you visit that page, there is also a picture she sent me of the sign at the end of the road. Oh also, the road to the cemetery is between two houses (or a house and a trailer, not sure) - but if you are looking you shouldn't miss it. If you get to this funny looking intersection that catches you off guard if you aren't paying attention (basically the highway goes sorta left and if you go straight you are on a gravel road, New Church Road; Haney Cemetery is right there) - if you get there, you've gone too far. Actually.... some ancestors of yours have photos on that page as well.... I have two more photos to put up but am changing servers very soon and so I haven't had a chance to yet. Hope this helps... valerie RMendelson@aol.com wrote: We are going to be in Ste. Genevieve in July. Can anyone give me specific directions to the Stone Church Cemetery? Also, is the cemetery locked up or open? Do I need to make specific arrangements to visit? I am descended from the Cheesebrough families buried there and am also related to Maggie Kennon who is buried there. Maggie was the daughter of Mary Cheesebrough and John Kennon. I believe John was the son of Hughes Owen Kennon and Margaret Irby. I would be pleased to hear from anyone researching these lines. Thanks in advance!

IT was locked when I was there also. No Trespassing signs are posted. Almost missed it to. Lucky I was with someone who knew the area.
