Lurton Cemetery

NW 1/4 SE 1/4, Section 22, Township 15N, Range 10W
Morgan County, Illinois

The word cemetery is not correct terminology in this case, because only one burial was made here. The burial was made on the grounds of a Brock home that has long since been demolished. The grave is still there, but was never marked. The house and grave were on the west side of the roadway that is commonly known as Black's Lane, a short distance east of Jacksonville. Both the house and grave were located on high ground a few yards south of the branch or creek that crosses the road.
