Cemeteries: Alphabetized List
Cemeteries by Township
© 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 D&C Research Group
Survey completed March 29, 2002
Directions: from the Post Office in Otto, go north on Hwy. 441 for about 2.6 miles. Take a left onto Coweeta Church Road. The cemetery entrance is about 1/10 of a mile on the left up Coweeta Church Rd.
Note: Some of the tombstones were so eroded that they were difficult to read. Where needed, I have included notes from the old WPA survey that was done in 1940 by Horace J. Hurst to help clarify the dates.
