Muddy Creek Cemetery




Daviess County, Missouri

NOTE: Part A of this transcription was made by Virgil Cheney who writes: "About 20 years ago my wife and I made a very incomplete copy of some of the names listed there. A lot of the stones are sandrock and unreadable. The cemetery is prone to flooding as it is on the banks of a creek."

Virgil completed Part B of the transcription in 1999/2000 and adds: "I walked this cemetery with a hand held recorder and there was a very light snow on the ground, so there are possible mistakes for which I apologize in advance." We extend our gratitude to Virgil for his willingness to do this and permission to share it with us all!
