Belcher Cemetery

Griffithville,

Belcher Graveyard,is located in Section 1, SW corner of the SE1/4 of SW1/4 Township 5 North, Range 6 West. Leroy Blair visited the cemetery October 19, 2000, and reported "it is now fairly clean." He added, "There are so many unmarked graves it would be very hard to tell how many but my guess is over 100. The cemetery covers a very large area. Where the graves are located indicates that there are probably a lot more not marked."
