Shannon County Cemeteries
BAPTIST HILL CEMETERY
a/k/a Old Baptist Cemetery
Winona Shannon Co MO
Photos Posted at
Findagrave.com
Located at Winona on Old Hwy. 60 in
southwest part of town, between the intersections of south Hwy. 19 and north
Hwy. 19.
(Just up the hill from the car wash, on the left, and directly across the
highway from the senior citizens apartments and Trace Pond).
This is a very old cemetery. Many years
ago a sink hole appeared and a lot of graves disappeared.
There are obvious locations of graves throughout the cemetery that are unmarked,
sunken in or overgrown, and unidentifiable.
It is certain that all the burials in this cemetery are not listed, but as many
as are known are here.
