There are 17 readable stones with the last name of Cowan, plus one female whose last name is Story but her stone says she married a Cowan. Sometimes a cemetery is named after the first person buried there. If that is the case, then the oldest readable stone I find is for Latha Wynn who died 1874, but she is the only Wynn with a readable stone. There are 2 unreadable stones with writing on them, as well as a few just sandstones that could possible be marking a grave. The cemetery is located on a hill on 141 in Union County, Ky. Heading towards Morganfield on 141, you will pass Dixon Road on your left, on over the hill on your right is Lynn Rd. This cemetery is on the left about half way between Dixon & Lynn Roads.
