Ms. Melton surveyed this cemetery in 2005.
Sec. 27, R20E, T20N----Go north on highway 82 about one mile from town Locust Grove. On the east side of the highway there is a big yellow sign that reads: Flea Market and Swap Meet. The cemetery is surrounded by a four foot stone wall, you can see it from the highway. The gate is kept locked except for the weekends, although the first weekend of every month they are closed. Fair condition.
If you have family buried in the Ross Family Cemetery or can take a gate photo that I can place on the website or have obits (with newspapers permission or an obit that you can write) or tombstone photos or individual portraits or can write a short bio or have a history of the cemetery and would like to add your information to this website, contact the county coordinator for more information. You can also check out our How to Submit page.
NOTICE. If you submit information to this website and change your e-mail address please notify the area coordinator with the county/cemetery and new e-mail address so we can keep our pages as up to date as possible.
