Brick House Cemetery
Sugartree, Phelps County, Missouri, USA
Rolla to Arlington on Sixty-Six, then over Highway "D" from there through Jerome, left on "D", driving north and east.
located in southeast quarter of section 25, Township 38
This description was in PCGS Quarterly-Vol 23 Number 4, Nov 2007, pg 89.
(this was from a transcript that aired on a radio show on 3 Jun 1953)
An old log house built by John Duncan as early as 1818, still standing. Across the river from the old John Duncan log cabin are the high rocky cliffs that form the east Gasconade bank.On this side a cluster of rounded hillocks terminate the several long ridges that step down toward the river from the uplands,Some of the hillocks are vertically lower down than these several finger-like ridge ends. These dome-shaped hillocks form picturesque spots on which ANY house might be built. The old John Duncan home was built on one of these rounded lower hillocks – the Brick House Cemetery was on the next one north.
The old "Duncan Family" or "BRICK HOUSE CEMETERY", as it is called, is laid out on one of those low rounded knolls about two hundred yards north of the old log cabin house.
Said to be 60 to 70 members of the mostly Duncan family. Cows now graze over it, only one marble slab remains (at time this person was there long time ago), that of a grave "Bardney"
