Vantreese Cemetery
We have a few of those in our area. Lonely old graveyards that have been forgotten with time.

Yep. It's sad. I've recently gotten into tombstone preservation. Repairing broken stones, resetting and cleaning them.  Smaller ones, nothing too big.

I would love the stories behind these old gravestones. Each one unique.

I see a lot of this too, mainly in black cemeteries.  This cemetery is in the heart of town and is still very active. Sad!

Interesting stuff. Is there a particular place I could visit one day? Or would you bother with a recommendation?

I've been doing some genealogy lately and keep coming across relatives buried in Prince Cemetery in Lawrence County, KY.  I'm not sure where you are located in KY, but wondered if you knew of this place.  It is a Native American cemetery I believe.  I am curious if it is accessible from a public road or if it is on private property.  I'd love to visit.

Been to Jackson, when I was in college in McKenzie,  which is now a university. Jackson has a lot of neat history to it.
