 Directions: South of Highway 10 about 3/4 miles east from Greensburg, La.. You will need a guide.

One neighbor stated that about 24 years ago the tombstones were all broken by vandals. Wm. Kendrick's remains had been moved to Greensburg, La. and re-interred in the William Lafayette Tillery burial plot. William Kendrick was a Rev. Soldier and has a military marker plus a bronze memorial.

There are a few depressions indicating where graves might have been; also an occasional brick here and there, and the person who showed us where the cemetery is stated that he remembered when a brick vault stood there and stated he knew for a fact the vault was torn away and used in house building. Perhaps if the whole area was raked and cleared away, a few pieces of markers could be found.
