Marshall County AlArchives Cemeteries.....Fry Cemetery - Partial Survey More to Come ************************************************ Copyright.

It was begun in the early 1800's and was last used in the late 1940s. It is located at the intersection of Fry Gap Rd and Rock Hill Rd in the Fry Community. There is no road leading up to it. It is across a hay field and up a hill from the intersection, in the woods. It is currently overgrown and has lots of poison ivy in it. The founder of the Fry Community, Phillip Fry, and his family are supposed to be buried there, but their markers are either gone or too worn to be read. There are many cairns, slabs and stones with no writing on them. I do not know how many, if any, people have the same stone, or what relation any of them are to each other, except for the two sets of twins.
