Dunn Cemetery
This old cemetery is located in the SE1/4 SW1/4 of Section 8, Township 14 South, Range 22 West. It is somewhat difficult to locate if you are not familiar with the area. The cemetery is fenced. I did a second survey of this cemetery Oct. 6, 2006 and it does not appear that any maintenance has been done in some time. A complete record of this cemetery made in 1997.Driving directions: The old road leading to the cemetery from Hwy. 53 has been closed.
