Byard Cemetery

Transcribed & Photographed by: Cindy Ford - July 7, 2003

This Cemetery has a wall built around it made of concrete about 3 feet tall.
Believed to have about 15 or 16 graves not many stones remain.
It is in very bad condition with a tree that has fell right in the middle of the cemetery.

The cemetery land I'm told was given by the Byard family unsure if it was Martin who is laid to rest here.

Many volunteers have worked very hard to provide the researchers of Jefferson County a listing of Cemeteries and to provide pictures of headstones to help you in your personal research.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE the cemetery listings and pictures that others have worked so hard to provide and add it to any other website as your own.

Thank You for understanding and respecting the work of others.
