WARD CEMETERY
.

Go past the Pigeon Roost Road at Boons Camp about .5 mile on St. Rd. 1596.  Immediately
on your left right beside the road is the cemetery.


This cemetery,I believe, should be named The "Greenville Ward Cem". He was the head of
all the Wards that are interned here. He was also the son of Shadrack & Abigail
Mollett Ward. Shadrack was Johnson Co,s 1st elected Judge,1854-1858.
