Cemetery transcription by members of the Jacksonville
Area
Genealogical and Historical Society
Six miles southwest of Jacksonville public square are the
remaining
tombstones of Horrell Cemetery. The cemetery site itself is situated on
a gentle area of high ground that is now a cultivated field. The
tombstones
were removed several years ago and placed in a wooded area immediately
to the west of the field, and on the east side of a small stream. Even
with detailed directions it is difficult to find the flattened
tombstones
in the dense brush. The cemetery is within sight of the
Winchester-Jacksonville
highway, and is in nearly the exact center of the northeast quarter of
Section 32 in Township 15 N Range 11 W. It is on a direct line from
Allinson
Cemetery to Richardson Cemetery and is almost exactly the center point
between those two cemeteries.
Words in brackets [ ] or parenthesis ( )are not on
