Evans Peery Cemetery, Grundy County, MO


The Evans Peery Family Cemetery is located in Madison Township; S10-T61N-R25W. It is reached by walking about 1/4 mile through a pasture. In 1997 it was possible to drive a car part of the way through the pasture. A beautiful dry-rock wall, about three feet high, surrounds this cemetery. It is assumed that since this cemetery was established before the Civil War and by Evans Peery, it probably was built by slave labor. The cemetery was recorded in 1962 by Mrs. B.F. Hoover. There are 10-12 unmarked graves.
