   DUNKARD CEMETERY

          aka the Fisher Cemetery

 

I recently learned that this cemetery has been located and that a group of volunteers are in the process of reclaiming and preserving the cemetery.

 

The cemetery is located 1/4 m N of Cr55 and Cr 30 then 417 yards East.  The public is encouraged to visit the site, but please be mindful of the surrounding fields!

 

 There are 11 known burials. During the renovations another 31 unmarked graves were found
