Grundy County, MO Cemetery

Johnson Cemetery, Grundy County, MO


Also known as Newton-McCray Family Cemetery



This cemetery is located in Franklin Township; S20-T63N-R24W. Would never be seen from road, back in pasture about 1/4 mile west of road. However, cemetery is tended, well fenced, and stones in good condition. One tall cedar tree grows in center of cemetery; several hickory and other shade trees make a lovely rural setting with view of the "Green Hills" of North Missouri. Recorded in 1964 by Mrs. O. L. Livingston and Mrs. B. F. Hoover.

These cemetery records will no longer be updated effective December 2016.
