Cemetery transcription by members of the Jacksonville
Area
Genealogical and Historical Society
Near the intersection of two country roads, this cemetery is
southeast
of Literberry, in the southeast quarter of the southwest quarter of the
southeast quarter in Section 8 in Township 16 N Range 9 West. Oak Ridge
Church was formerly located next to this cemetery. After the church was
razed some burials were exhumed and the remains were interred in other
cemeteries. Every remaining tombstone is toppled and some are broken.
There
is evidence of unmarked graves.
A news story in the JACKSONVILLE JOURNAL of Sept. 5, 1925 states that
this
cemetery was formerly known as STOCKTON CEMETERY. The story also lists
the following burials as having been made in the cemetery:
Keefe Family
Morgan Family
Gard Family
* = No Stone Found
** = Soldier
