Comrade Cemetery - Vernon Parish Submitted by Jane P. McManus ******* ********************************************** Copyright. All rights reserved. http://usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://usgwarchives.net/la/lafiles.htm ********************************************** Directions: On LA Hwy. 8 from Lena toward Simpson, go approximately 1.5 miles from the Rapides/Vernon Parish border. Just before you reach the Comrade Baptist Church, turn right onto Comrade Cemetery Road. Continue on this unimproved road for almost 4.0 miles, and turn right onto dirt road at Comrade Cemetery sign. Go approximately .4 miles, and turn right to cemetery. This large, well-maintained cemetery (approximately 2 acres) is located in middle of a pine forest, with very large pinecones spread over the ground. A covered pavilion for funerals or meetings is just inside the front gate to the right. Comrade Baptist Church was in existence as early as 1874, when J. R. O'Banion was preacher. The oldest burial in the cemetery was dated 1877 for Victoria Word, and 1884 for Celia Dillon. There are several tombstones that have deteriorated and are impossible to read. Many of these were the small concrete markers that were made during the Depression to mark previously unmarked burials. Tombstone inscriptions were read in zigzag rows from the building on the right to the left fence. Burials were originally inventoried in March 1976, and updated 11 March 1996 by Jane P. McManus.
