Corsicana Cemetery
Also known as Gadfly Cemetery , Old Corsicana Cemetery
Corsicana, Barry County, Missouri, USA
It is surrounded by privately owned land. The gate to the cemetery is kept locked in an attempt to try and discourage vandalism. The owner should be contacted before going across the land into the cemetery - so they can arrange to have the gate unlocked.
A Cemetery Association for this cemetery was organized in 1916. The cemetery is located in a very remote area, not visible from a road. Over the years there has been considerable vandalism, with markers being overturned, broken or stolen. In Oct 2005 the Barry County Cemetery Restoration and Preservation Committee was formed. Their charter is to locate, photograph, record, and -- when possible -- repair and restore all of the markers and abandoned cemeteries and grave sites in Barry County, MO. Their work at Corsicana has been completed.
