The Iron County Poor Farm Cemetery has been forgotten with the passing of time. The growth of trees and brush have almost covered any evidence of its existence. There are no stones to mark the graves of those who rest here. When an inmate/resident died they were supplied with a casket and a grave side ceremony compliments of the County. Hopefully a day will come when we will know each and everyone who lies here waiting for the Lord's return.

All Missouri death certificates available for the years the poor farm was in operation have been researched. Also John Albert's Undertaking Business records were searched for those who rest here. There are a few buried here that were not inmates/residents of the poor farm, but were those who died in the county with no knowledge of their beginnings or who their relatives were.

Thanks to contributor James Turner Harris for his efforts and time to add available census and other information to those buried here.

The map location included here is very accurate just in case you locate a relative or loved one from your family.

There are no markers or headstones.
