Richard B. Davis ******************************************************************** Unknown Cemetery #1, McCracken County, Kentucky Location: From Exit 4 on I-24, turn west onto US-60 (It should be noted here that US-60 is being upgraded to a four-lane interstate style highway that will open in the spring of 2000) and travel approximately 23.5 miles to the junction of US-60 and KY-1563. Turn right onto KY-1563 and travel approximately 4.8 miles. The cemetery is very small and is located on the left hand side of the road in a neighborhood family's yard. Even thought the surrounding yards are mowed, the cemetery is very neglected and surrounded by an old chain-link style fence and has many trees of various sizes inside. There is no parking available and many neighborhood dogs run about loose. The cemetery is marked on the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's McCracken County Map. History: History of this cemetery is unknown. It appears to be an old family cemetery. CAMPBELL, Benjamin C. b. Feb. 16, 1888 d.
