Askew - Blackston Family Cemetery
 
This cemetery is located off of Hwy 308 (Governor's Road). From Southwestern Middle School travel about 6.03 miles headed toward Lewiston. Turn off of Governor's Road to your left onto Askew Road. Follow this dirt path til you get to an old abanded house on your right. Turn right at the house and travel til you see a small island of trees on your right. The cemetery is in very bad condition.

Some of the stones are very hard to read. I have done the very best that I could do to read them.
