Address to Cemetery #13 – 9707 Covered Bridge Rd., Prospect, KY.

Cemetery #13 is the cemetery number which the Oldham County Historical Society put on it when they published the book "Oldham County Records, Vol. I, Cemeteries, by McKechnie and Dent". They list the name as "Hardin Cemetery 2" in the book although they admit not knowing the location of the cemetery nor who may be buried there.

This cemetery used to be known as the Elmo Clore cemetery and was located on the Elmo Clore farm. That was many years ago. In 1986 it was very overgrown with weeds and brush. When I saw it, the cemetery was fenced off with a rectangular wooden fence. My son Chris and I pulled out the overgrown weeds to get to the headstones. In July 2016 when I visited the place the fence had been torn down and the grass mowed. Much more accessible.

Directions to Cemetery: Take I-71 East out of the north top of Louisville to Hwy 329. Turn left onto hwy 329 and go 2.1 miles to 9707 Covered Bridge Rd Driveway. Turn right and go between 2 stone pillars. Drive down the long driveway and you'll come to where you must turn right or left. Turn left and go a few hundred feet and turn right onto the first gravel road you come to. The cemetery is on the right.
