New Hope Cemetery Description-This cemetery is found on the same property as New Hope Church (formally called New Hope Cumberland Presbyterian Church). It is fenced with 2 gates that readily open. INSIDE the fence is a rock drive surrounding the entire outer perimeter. The church does not maintain records for it. The name of the current Sec. Treasurer is Zachary Moser. It is very well maintained, and the lawn is well manicured and trimmed. There are, however, some graves that have sunk and the ground has become uneven, but can easily be leisurely walked in 3 hours. There is little shade-yet there are 2 trees in the center of it. The flag was flying, the mourning doves were making their soft coo-oo sounds and it is indeed a very restful site. A few of the graves do have benches for reflection/thoughts. The road that runs alongside the cemetery had only 1 car that passed by in the two days that I was there taking photos/inventory for F-A-G. It is so peaceful and is still an active cemetery with much room left.
Directions: From Highway 32, take a right hand turn onto South MacCarthur Ave (aka HH), then drive several miles until Hwy K, then make a right hand turn onto Hwy K and drive a few miles until you see 6200 County Road (on the left-where there is also found a large sign that says New Hope Church). This is a loose gravel road, and you drive it for a couple of miles and the New Hope Church AND Cemetery will be on the right.
