This cemetery can be seen from the road in the winter easily. Located at the corner of State hwy 19 and Ligon road west of Talbotton about two miles from the Talbotton City limits. I welcome any additions or corrections. Please contact the site coordinator or Larry Childs. Please feel free to use. (Apr 2004) This cemetery has not been cleaned or the grass cut in a couple of years. But beside tall grass it is in good shape. Barksdale Cemetery John E.
