Wooley Cemetery, Grundy County, MO

This cemetery is located in Lincoln Township; S12-T62N-R24W, about 3/4 mile west of Route Y on what is known as the old John Vogel farm (1963). The cemetery is very inaccessible; lying close to Owl Branch of Muddy Creek. The stones are down and broken and scattered. The NUCKLES family is also buried here, but no markers can be located. The cemetery was recorded in 1963 by Mrs. B. F. Hoover and Mrs. O. L. Livingston.

Also known as Nuckles Cemetery and New Hope Cemetery
