The cemetery is on the right (south side) and enclosed behind a sturdy fence. There is ample room to park your vehicle outside the fence but, if desired, you may drive onto the grounds. In either case, please close and secure the gate upon leaving. Situated on a busy county road, this little cemetery is none the less fairly well maintained. There has been considerable gravestone damage, however, there has also been a lot of repair work and its apparent that some one is making an effort to keep it as clean as possible. There are a number of unknown graves. A marker informs: "A church and a cemetery were established here in 1880. Stephen P. Douglas who died in 1889 is the earliest marked burial. In 1890 Abraham and Susanna Bellamy donated land to the Methodist Episcopal Church, in memory of her parents Joseph and Susanna Vereen. A building completed in 1891, served as the community's church and for some years, as a public school, until it was destroyed by a forest fire in 1920."

Original survey taken Dec 29 1992. Updates were taken Mar 29 2002. Special Note: With Vereen Cemetery, this ends the surveys of Pasco Cemeteries that I began 9 years ago. I have tried to thank all those that helped it in any capacity as I went along, for I truly am grateful. It has been quite an experience. I have met some nice people along the way and have a lot of stories I could tell, and may someday. Working on this project kept me going when all I wanted to do was wrap my self in a blanket of sorrow because I was losing my only sister. Guess I don't have to tell you that this effort is dedicated to her memory ..... Love you, Dink.
