The cemetery is located just North of the Shields Cemetery in Leesville, IN on a private farm. In the fall or spring you can see it from Shields Cemetery. It was all overgrown with sapplings. My husband, his sister, her husband, a couple of local boys and I cleared it as best as we could one day in Oct 1999. Alot of the stones are in remarkable condition, but some were unreadable. We got this list of people buried there from a book at the Bedford, IN library.
