CROW-DEFEE CEMETERY is located on Crow Cemetery Road off Camp Five Road abaout 
2 miles south of Marion. The road leaving the city to get to Camp Five Road is 
blacktop but turns to Camp Five Road is blacktop, but turns to red clay at Camp 
Five Road.  It is hardly accessible by anything but a 4-wheel drive vehicle 
unless the weather has been very dry. There are only 7 visible graves marked in 
the fenced in cemetery. It is very grown up with small sapling trees all 
throughout the fairly largecemetery. It is possible that there may be some 
unmarked graves here,  but there were no signs of them.

was a veterans marker, it is noted in the MISC INFO with rank and branch of 
service and where served as shown on the actual marker.
