It's actually on the east side of Stage Road about 0.1 mile south of Foskey Lane and sitting back from the road a couple hundred feet. The cemetery is in great shape and can be identified on the 1876 maps in the Parsons District in the far NW corner where it says 'Res., Heirs of I.M. Nichols'", says Mike Hitch, who has provided this list. Thanks again, Mike! Infants of R. & Cleora DENNIS (no dates) Embedded in tree SHOCKLEY Ella Shockley LEONARD 1874-1902 Thomas A.
