Burrow Cemetery

The information for the Burrow Cemetery was submitted by Marie Carlton for publication in Tate Trails. The article appeared in Volume IV, Number 2, June 1986.

"The Burrow Cemetery was copied by Fred and Marie Carlton on March 6, 1986. This cemetery is located about 300 to 350 yards off the main road in Range 4, Township 6 in Marshall County, MS. It is covered with vines and undergrowth. There are many unmarked graves."

"This cemetery is not listed in the Marshall County Cemetery Book. I (Marie Carlton) named it the Burrow Cemetery because it is on the Old Burrow land."
