Ozark County Missouri, Turnbo Cemetery Headstones
Compiled Inscriptions for Relocated Turnbo Cemetery at Pontiac For the second time in 25 years, the relocated Turnbo Cemetery at Pontiac is being cleared of brush and overgrowth of grass, weeds, and brambles.

The work is being done by Verl Mahan, Floyd Mahan and D. P. Herd. So far, several loads of brush have been cleared away and after the first frost, weeds and brambles will be cut down

It was in 1950, in preparation for the impoundment of Bull Shoals Lake, that the U. S. Corps of Engineers moved the cemetery to its rocky slope not far from Pontiac Cemetery. The present location, approximately two acres, was purchased by the Corps of Engineers from William M. Martin.

First located between the east side of Little North Fork and the west side of Spring Creek, the cemetery was in existence there before the Civil War. It now lies under the waters of Bull Shoals Lake.

Located on land first owned by Andy Herd and Hettie Johnson Herd, the cemetery became known as the Turnbo Cemetery probably after Hettie Herd was widowed and later married to J. N. Turnbo.

Another tie with the Turnbo name came when Hettie and Andy Herd's son, Jess E., Herd, married Eliza Turnbo, the daughter of S. C. Turnbo, author of Fireside Stories, a detailed history of the settlement of central and western Ozark county. Later, Jess and Eliza Herd's daughter, Fannie Herd, married M. M. Sanders and it was the Sanders family who sold the old location of the cemetery to the U. S. Government.
