Sears Cemetery

SEARS CEMETERY
Scott County, Illinois




   

   



On 2 Jan 2004 Stan and Jeanie (Hale) Lowe, in search of her 4th great grandparents -- John and Mary Morrison -- found Sears cemetery and documented all stones they could find there. The cemetery is located about a half of a mile off a gravel road with the closest town being Oxville, IL in Scott County. The land is owned by a descendent of the Sears family and their daughter graciously took us up to the cemetery. She said that when her grandmother was alive there were a lot of people who would come to visit the cemetery. The cemetery is not easily accessible as there is no road to the cemetery for the last half mile. It is in a woods off of a field. The cemetery is fenced but the fence is down in places which was a help for easier access.

Photos & Inscription completed & submitted by: Stan & Jeanie Lowe.

Many thanks to these two for their work in creating a listing which includes so much more than the original 9 names we had before.
