Blanton Cemetery
This census was taken by Michael Cross several years ago. The photos were taken in April of 2008. No effort was made at any inventory or to photograph every stone on this visit. Most photos we did take were too dark in the shade and too bright in the glare of the direct sun from the West. We need to try again at a different time of day. We were primarily interested in locating the cemetery and determining its condition.
The cemetery is in rough shape but not as bad as it looks from the photos. It is overgrown, primarily with prairie grasses and needs a good mowing. It is evident that some effort was made in the past to clean up this cemetery as there is a large brush pile of limbs near the entrance. We did not find much in the way of tree limbs downed in the cemetery proper.
Most of the tall stones have been tumbled although we so no further signs of vandalism. Cleaning up this cemetery would be a great Eagle Scout project requiring more time and muscle than heavy equipment.
