Records to add to Odell Cemetery? -

Odell Cemetery submitted by

There seems to be disagreement regarding the number of people buried in the Odell Cemetery, aka Ebenezer Cemetery. As many as 104 may be buried there. In 1940 DAR made the following list. Over time, many of the records have been lost and many of the headstones have been vandalized. Perhaps some of the graves never had headstones. The names listed below with two asterisks (**) have no headstones.

From Salem head north on Wallace Road (Highway 221). Turn west on Alderman. There is a Holbrook Farm sign across the street from the Alderman sign. Turn south on Webfoot Road and drive .5 miles. The cemetery is located on the west side of the road. There is a broken down chapel in the cemetery named Ebenezer. The original chapel was built 1857. It was rebuilt in 1926 (T5S R5W S7).

Oddfellows (IOOF) Cemetery is about 4.2 miles farther down on Alderman (T4S R3W S21). Turn west on Thompson Lane. This appears to be an active cemetery. Brookside/Creekside Cemetery is located about 5 miles farther down Alderman. Turn a hard left (west) on an small unnamed gravel road just before the intersection of Third Street and Mill. The cemetery has a large blank sign. (T4S R3W S17).
