Versailes Cemetery, Versailes TWP., Brown County, Illinois is located on the West side of town. We just followed a sign that said Cemetery & park out west of the town of Versailes. On the left hand side of the road you see a sign pointing the cemetery. It is on a gravel road that leads right up to the cemetery which sits on a hill you can see from the road. if you have any questions or would like to add any information or a photo of a tombstone feel free to email me. Thanks!
