STOCKYARD CEMETERY  (#77)  ?
T24N R6E SEC 10
Map #11


In the heart of Poplar Bluff by the Railroad yard is an area that was known as STOCKYARD HILL and where later,
Wiseman’s junkyard was located. Mr Greer stated it was sort of a ‘boot hill’ and quite a hobo camp. When the railroad ran a spur into that area, Mr. Greer relocated about 32 graves to the City cemetery.
