Boston Mills-Cox Cemetery
Cherokee County, Kansas, USA
This old cemetery is located southwest of the old Gulf Chemical plant. It is south off Boston Mills Road just west of an old railroad track. The entrance road is unmarked and goes into a field and finally ends up at the wooded entrance which is still unmarked. It is enclosed in a way that the cemetery area can be determined. The head stones date back to the 1870's with some broken that cannot be read. When it was last read, many years ago, they found approximately 12 head stones remaining. This cemetery was neglected for so many years and has large trees which has covered the area with leaves for those many years, that any remaining flat stones could have been under all the old mulch. When John took a photo in 1984 the cemetery was intact although badly neglected. It has had some upkeep in 2004 and later now.
It was located in Lowell Township and the Lowell Township Board was made aware that they were also responsible for it. They did clean the area around the area containing the supposed only remaining stones. The Lowell Township Board made a good start on getting it cleaned up, but it's now privately owned and it's present condition is unknown.
