Contributed by Linda Lewis, Aug 24, 2007, last edited Aug 27, 2007 [webmaster@cottonhills.com]. Total records = 39.

Directions: From Linwood KS, take KS-32 East. Turn left on Cantrell Roadd then turn right onto 190th Street. The cemetery is on the east side of the road.

I did not find out the history of this very old cemetery. Judging from the existing stones, it was established around 1870, and is maintained by the Sherman Township at this time.

I completed this transcription by reading and photographing all existing and legible gravestones on Jul 05, 2007. Photos available upon request.
