| Directions |
In Pettus on Hwy 181, go east on FM 623 .1 mile to South Milam Street go .2 miles (road turns to gravel at .1 mile) to driveway of Tracey and George Ray. Follow gravel driveway east to house. Cemetery is located just SE of house. Continue past house to barbed wire fence. Follow fenceline south about 50 yards to cemetery on east side of fence.This cemetery was so overgrown at the time of visit that most of the graves were not visible. Mr. McCarty and I had to use clippers just to make trails through the brush to get a look at the stones. Many of the stones are covered by brush or dirt, and many of the fences around plots have fallen. It was almost impossible to survey this cemetery or establish bounds for this site because it is so overgrown and the graves cover very large area. This site needs immediate attention and clean-up. |
