      Laud Cem # 520   T1S, R8W, Sec 23            
      Surveyed January 2008 by Keith Hunt & Robert Torbert        
                  
      Location: From Lexington, go southeast on CR 51; turn left on CR 87; turn right on CR 497 and then take CR 499 to its end.  The cemetery is up on the hill behind the house at the base of a extra large oak tree.  An * indicates the correction of an error in the earlier survey published on page 395 of Cemeteries of East Lauderdale County, Alabama.    
      Could Martha Jane be the Millie mentioned in the Shelton Cemetery which is located at the same address?
