                  Carroll-Adkins Cemetery

This cemetery is located 9/10 of a mile down an old railroad track that 
runs in front of the Fellowship Church in Shea.  When going down the 
railroad bed, if you look over the edge you will come upon three huge 
culverts that run underneath it and that's where the cemetery is.   It is 
very overgrown and we had to go back in late winter/early spring before 
everything got grown up in order to find it.  

Special thanks to my Dad, Glenn Byrge, my Uncle, Jay Byrge, and their 
Uncle, Raymond Farmer, who went for me (twice, as the first time it 
was too overgrown and they had to go back knocking on doors before 
finding it) and photographed all the stones so I could transcribe.  

An added thanks to Oscar Phillips who, before his death, graciously 
allowed me to include four stones that he had transcribed in 1987 which 
we did not find in March of 1999.  I have enclosed all the information 
from Oscar between [BRACKETS] in my transcription, and any added 
information that I had in 
(parenthesis).

The cemetery has been mostly overgrown with trees, etc. now and many 
of the stones are hand carved.  I have recorded the names exactly and 
some were obviously misspelled at the time of death.
