  • Cemetery should be to your left just before getting to Laquey Schools.


COMMENTS FROM SUBMITTER:

The cemetery is in great condition and is maintained by the Laquey School System. I have pictures of the tombstones, and willing to email copies if requested.

Below are the recorded inscriptions.
There are about 25 additional fieldstones that are unknown who they are. There are a few other stones, but they appear to be footstones.
