Hi All, Can you help??? This is a test to see if you can come up with a name for this cemetery and if you know where a listing might still be in existence.

When you get to the top of Ketchumville hill there will be an old cemetery on your right. At the bottom you will see a house on your right with a garage beside it almost on the road. this is where my aunt Caroline Thompson lives. Go on up the next hill and down the other side you will see a trailer on your left and below that a white house. The white house is the Old Lincoln Place where I was born and raised. This house is on a cellar that contains the head stones from the grave yard.they were used for walk stones. The trailer above the house going back toward ketchumville sits on top of the grave yard, with most of the graves under and behind it they people buried there died of typhoid, diptheria, scarlet fever, small pox and other highly communicable deceases Aunt Caroline was married to my uncle Paul Thompson and since he died she stays home most of the time Her address is 672 s. ketchumville rd My dads name was Neal A Thompson Sir and the property was deaded through family from Charles Thompson to Clarence Thompson to Neal Thompson. I believe before Chrales Thompson had it it was in the name of Byrd Freeman not sure tho do know that the deed had that section listed as a cemetery and was to be used for that purpose only we did cut the hay and had some apple trees on it.
