All rights reserved. http://usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://usgwarchives.net/la/lafiles.htm ************************************************ Martin Cemetery (Latitude 305613N, Longitude 895818W) is off Hwy 62 on the west side. About 7 miles north of Hwy. 10. Look for little gravel road, go down that road until you come to a fork in the road. Take the road on the right, the road is gated at this point and you will have to walk. From the gate it is just up the path . NOTE: this is private property and is posted.

The marker came from Brown funeral home of Amite, Bogalusa, Kentwood (from the location of the Cemetery Zack was probably buried out of Bogalusa) ** ? indicates an unreadable inscription. There are at least 6 unmarked graves that I was able to detect. Most of the gravestones are almost completely unreadable.
