Unnamed Cemetery #86
Moss Creek Township, Carroll County, Missouri, USA
Unnamed Cemetery #86 is located in the Southwest area of Carroll County, Missouri and is located Southeast of the town of Norborne, MO.
Driving directions:
Turn South off of Highway 10, onto County Road 171. Go 3.5 miles.
Turn West on County Road 334 and continue for 1 mile.
Turn South on County Road 161 and continue 0.7 miles.
Turn East on County Road 342 (dirt road) and continue for 0.3 miles.
The cemetery will be in a grove of trees on the North side of 342.
There is no road leading to the cemetery and can only be accessed by walking across the cropland on the South side. Road 342 is actually a County Road but is not graveled and it is not advisable to drive on it while wet.
The known cemeteries of Carroll County were documented in the late 1990's and a map was made of their locations. If the cemetery names were unknown, they were listed as "Unnamed", followed by a designated #, according to their locations on the map. This is how "Unnamed Cemetery #86" came about being named.
Recently explored, the oldest stone found so far has a death date of 1843. The cemetery has been unkept for at least 5 decades and has been through numerous devastating floods. Visiting here, is not for the faint of heart. It is consumed by downed trees, limbs, buck brush, vines, sticker bushes and etc. Stones have toppled over, and some have been nearly covered by the silting from the floods and neglect of maintenance. It's also possible there are stones no longer visible.
At this time, it is not known why Henry Young and 3 of his children have stones in both this cemetery and in nearby Fairhaven Cemetery, where his wife and other children are buried.
