Cryer Cemetery - Vernon Parish Submitted by Jane P. McManus ******* ********************************************** Copyright. All rights reserved. http://usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://usgwarchives.net/la/lafiles.htm ********************************************** Directions: From the junction of US Hwy. 171 & LA Hwy. 10 east in Pickering, go south on US Hwy. 171 for approximately 2.5 miles. Turn right (west) onto an unimproved road and continue approximately 3.5 miles. Cemetery is located on top of a hill with a beautiful view at the end of this road. The large fenced area is about 3-4 acres in size, fenced, and maintained by the Cryer Cemetery Association. There are large pine and cedar trees in the area. A driveway from front to back is located on the south side. At this time, all burials are to the north of this driveway, mostly on top of the hill, and the area to the south is open for future burials. The cemetery is obviously very old according to a plaque in the center with the first burial in 1813. There are many unmarked older burials, all neatly mounded, covered with gravel, and most have a stake or brick or old sandstone rock at the head and foot. Bracketed genealogical notes provided by family members were not on tombstone, and should be used as a clue for further research. Tombstone inscriptions were recorded from back to front in rows by Jane P. McManus, March 20, 1995, and submitted 10 February 2001. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Row 1 & 2: [south to north] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Johnson, Pamela - 15 Nov 1959/1 Jan 1960 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alford, William R. - 28 Dec 1911/19 Oct 1979 Alford, Ruby W. - 18 Apr 1912/8 Jul 1993 [Above 2 burials have a double stone] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hammett, Ruben H. - 18 Oct 1886/4 Dec 1960 Hammett, Zelma W. - 30 Mar 1908/[no dates] [d/o John Albert Wilson & Mary Jane Blackmon] [Above 2 burials have a double stone] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [concrete border, white rocks - behind Hammett stone - no information] [unmarked infant burial with stick - no information] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fletcher, Wallace Gentry - 23 Apr 1924/29 Sep 1982 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fletcher, James S. - 31 Oct 1888/18 Aug 1967 Father Fletcher, Lela Cryer - 10 Sep 1890/25 May 1961 Mother [d/o John C.
