Belk Cemetery
Richwood Township
Section 8, Township 39 North, Range 12 West
Miller County, MO.
From junctions 42 & 17 in Iberia, go east for 1.5 miles to Rabbit Head Road. Turn left and go 1.4 miles to Rabbit Head School Road. Turn right and go 1 mile to the end of the road. There you will see a large gate and the cemetery lies beyond this gate in a field heading to the left. You can see a few stones from the gate. There is a well-worn route to help find the cemetery. The cemetery is fenced, but not well tended. It was originally called the Schubert Cemetery.
**Note the West family has a large metal marker placed on a tree giving their names and dates for six of them. However, it seems that only George M. West is buried here and the others are buried in the Barnhart Cemetery.
