Thanks to Tom Mitchell & Jane Eubanks for the pictures.

According to the Department of Transportation's map of Upshur County, this is the name of this cemetery.

Take Hwy 155 from Big Sandy to FM 1002 .  About 1 mile or less, turn right on Aspen St, go about 7/10 of a mile, the cemetery will be on the right hand side of the road.

Read by Sharon Pierce and Judy Greenway  August 19, 2001

As hard as we all try, we are human and sometimes when reading a cemetery we miss a grave covered with leaves, fireants, or bushes. Sometimes the headstone has sunk and is mostly underground. Our area also has many graves only marked with iron ore rocks and even many unmarked graves. There are headstones that have long ago been destroyed by the elements or even vandalizm, and are hard to impossible to read the details. We would appreciate it if you would let us know if you did not find your relative which was buried
here, and would appreciate your letting us use the information you know about them. With the combined efforts of us all, we can make the Upshur County website bigger and better.
