Kanza Cemetery (plot order), Elbert County, Colorado Donated to the Colorado Archives by Rhoda Friend and Linda Vixie, 12 November 2002. http://files.usgwarchives.net/co/elbert/cemeteries/kanza-p.txt Kanza Cemetery is located northeast of Rush, Colorado. From Colorado Springs, go east on Highway 94. Go past Rush two miles and turn north on Holtwood Road (the county line between El Paso and Elbert counties). Drive three miles and turn right onto County Road 6. The cemetery is about half a mile on the right. The GPS-derived coordinates are 38 degrees 52'58.7"N and 104 degrees 02'40.5"W in Section 31, Township 13 South, Range 59 West. The row and plot numbers were assigned by the volunteers to designate location. Some rows aren't straight and locations are estimates, but the relative locations are close and should allow users of this database to find markers of interest. Row 1 begins in the NE corner and proceeds south. Row numbers increase to the west. Several unmarked graves are present in this prairie cemetery.
