From Saint James, Missouri take Highway DD East to it's end, turn right on County Road 3620, turn right at the first driveway. Cemetery is down that driveway.

This cemetery began in the mid 1880s and I do not know if it is a community cemetery or a family cemetery. Some of the locals also call it the Swyers Gorman Cemetery. Most maps use Gorman. I would welcome information on this.

The cemetery had quite a few flowers still on graves from Memorial day however most of the stones are old and almost completely unreadable. There were quite a few broken stones and some half buried in the ground.

There were a lot of field stones and several areas with no field stones or head stones. You could tell there were graves there but no markers. This cemetery will be lost forever in a very few years. I was surprised to find a 2002 & 2003 burial and several very nice newer stones.

Denise Seevers and I walked this cemetery in Oct of 2004.
