| Directions: Take Hwy 71 South from Marianna, FL to Suncrest Road. Turn left and go .3 mile. Turn right into field then turn left and follow road between field and pine trees for .3 mile. Cemetery is on left in a thicket. | |||||
| Cemetery is suppose to cover two acres. No way to tell how many people are buried here. Part of Cemetery has been set out in pine trees. Lots of vegetation - mostly briars and vines. In thicket where headstones are an area has been bulldozier between this thicket and pine trees at least 20 feet wide. This cleared area goes from the south side of thicket to the north side of thicket. Huge piles of trees and vegetation have been pushed into the thicket. When you go into thicket visiblity is only a few feet due to density of small trees and vegetation. There is suppose to be a headstone for Civility Waikeen but I could not find it. Don't know where it got covered up by the bulldozier or I just couldn't see it. This cemetery is on Private Land and right now the owner is in the process of fencing his property. | |||||
