Fountain Waller Cemetery (Waller Cemetery)
(Paradise Waller Cemetery)
Kansas City, Clay County, Missouri

Lat: 39° 12' 28"N, Lon: 94° 31' 32"W

Contributed by Tammy Logan, Mar 10, 2003 [tklogan@orwells.com]. Total records = 21.

Heading East on 210 Hwy from North Kansas City, MO, take the N. Brighton exit. Turn left at the stop sign, go approx. 4 miles on N Brighton to the 5000 block. Turn left onto Shady Lane (Carriage Hills Estates Subdivision). Take the first right (Cypress St) and go about a block and a half. The cemetery is on the right hand side of the street, with a large fence around it

This cemetery is located in the center of the north one-half, northwest quarter of Section 29, Township 51N, Range 32W, the southern part of the count.

There are supposed to be unmarked slave graves in this cemetery, no known record of them. The cemetery is abandoned and neglected, and there appear to be many unmarked graves.

I have photos of this cemetery, including what headstones are left that are legible enough to read if you are interested I can email them to you.

I walked this cemetery on Sep 10, 2002, and then compared my work with a previous transcription of the cemetery.
