Proctor Cemetery, Grundy County, MO

Photo provided by Michelle Shaw. © Copyright 2006 Michelle Shaw.


This cemetery is located in Lincoln Township; S15-T62N-R24W. It is well cared-for, mowed, late September; the stones in reasonable condition for a cemetery so little used. A large cedar tree grows in the center of the cemetery. (Unfortunately, it is no longer cared-for and has grown up in weeds and briars.) Transcribed by Mrs. B.F. Hoover and Mrs. O.L. Livingston in 1964.

Jan 2006 update: The cemetery has been completely cleaned up and made presentable as an Eagle Scout Project by Jason Ausberger, his friends and family - THANK YOU JASON AND FRIENDS!
