The smoke stack was struck by lightning in the late 1930's and a big chunk was broken out, and they tore it down not long after that. If there was a cemetery anywhere in that area I was not aware of it. The only ones I knew about were the North Belton Cemetery, South Belton Cemetery, County Home, and the Black Cemetery off N. Main.
