Hambelton Cemetery
T22, R12, S5
Highway 181, then 310 about 3 ½ miles, right on 312 to end of road

This old burial ground includes thirty to forty graves with  most  being
marked with fieldstones. Several years ago the grounds were cleared  and
fenced by family members, and at that time,  inscribed  headstones  were
placed to mark the graves of the Daniel and Zady Hambelton  family.  One
other grave, that of John Souder, is also marked.

The burial ground had been established before John W.  Hambelton  (1859-
1938) is said to have donated land for a public cemetery in the  1880's.
A bachelor, Hambelton welcomed orphans into his home, and  he  was  kind
and generous to renters, Rosie Miller recalled. The cemetery was  always
open to anyone who wanted to bury a loved one there, she said. Hambelton
himself is buried in Sallee Cemetery. Hugo and Lura Faye  Hambelton  now
own the land on which the cemetery lies.
