Ione or Michigan Bar Road (or Live Oak) Cemetery, near Ione, Sacramento County CA Following you will find general information on a cemetery in southeastern Sacramento County in California. The site was recorded by the Sloughhouse Area Genealogical Society in 1998. These are old cemeteries and most are not maintained although we are working to find groups to sponsor each. Many of the stones were indecipherable, as some are almost 150 years old; many had been vandalized. Whenever possible, our data from each cemetery was compared to lists that had been compiled in the past, by others. We have added names from those lists, even though we were often unable to find the actual gravesite within the cemetery. Old and venerable as the grove of live oaks it sits in, this cemetery is in a hidden pasture; green and lush in the spring, amber the remainder of the year beautifully contrasting the deep kelly green of the oaks. An unfortunate example of the vandalism that has occurred through the generations, this cemetery is located about 1/8 mile south of Highway 16 on Ione Road and is now locked and inaccessible to the public. Fortunately, due to early recordings, many of the names have survived, and many of the tombstones were photographed. This cemetery is on private property.
