Not far from old covered bridge site. Permission required. Please be thoughtful. In pastureland, fenced. Property originally that of William Burke McComas (1810) and his wife Nancy (Heath) McComas (1814) who had moved here from Cabell Co. VA. William was the son of Moses McComas and his wife Lucy (Napier) McComas and Nancy Heath the daughter of Israel Heath and his wife Elizabeth (Blue) Heath. Both William Burke and Nancy McComas buried here. John Wesley Heath (brother to Nancy Heath) who married another of Moses McComas's children, Judith McComas, lived close by. The land that the McComas Cemetery is situated on was, in early Missouri, a much larger spread belonging to the Heath and McComas families. James Heath and Chloe McComas bought 40 acres in Twp 52 (Carroll Township), Range 35, Sect 35 (southwest quarter of the southwest quarter of section thirty-five). William 'Burk' McComas and wife Nancy Heath bought 160 acres in Twp 52, Range 35, Sect 34 (the southeast quarter of section thirty four) and the remainder of the large Heath and McComas families were close by in townships 51 and 53 in Platte County. The daughter of William Burke McComas and Nancy Heath, Mary F. McComas, married David M. Kimsey and thus the land was eventually passed down to the Kimsey family, current owners.
