The Lee Cemetery is located on the original homestead of Robert Lee, Sr. & Lucy WEAVER Lee. The cemetery is located at the edge of a hayfield overlooking War Eagle River. The cemetery is in a remote location, and to reach it you must travel about 1/2 mile through private property, opening and closing several gates. It would be very difficult to find the cemetery without being guided by someone who had previously visited the cemetery. At one time the cemetery was fenced but now cattle can enter the cemetery. In the 1960's the landowner stated that he had counted about 30 graves in this cemetery. When I visited the cemetery the last time in 2007, the cemetery was overgrown with briars, vines and tall weeks and it was very difficult to even walk in it. I saw about a dozen fieldstones which were knocked over. There were no names on these fieldstones.

Update, February 2011: I have been provided with photos taken in 1989 by Robert Lee Hartley, Jr., and with his permission have posted them here. When Robert visited the cemetery in 1989, he took a weed-eater with him and cleaned off the cemetery so that the graves could be seen. As you can see in the picture posted here, there appears to be five graves covered with the large stone crypts (when I last visited it in 2007, it was so overgrown that I did not see 2 of these). Family information points to the fact that Robert Lee, Jr. & wife,Rebecca Jackson Lee, were buried in graves covered by these large rocks. Thank you to Mr. Hartley for sharing these wonderful photos !
