THE THORN CEMETERY This is a small cemetery that should be easy to find. It is located at the intersection of Harris/Henrietta Road and Ferry Road. It is about ninety feet south of the Harris/Henrietta Road and two hundred to two hundred and fifty feet west of Ferry Road. It is in a patch of pine trees. It is a little bit brushy getting in to the cemetery but the cemetery itself is pretty clean. THE SURNAMES ALEXANDER and THORN Thorn, N.T.
