North Florence Cemetery



This inactive cemetery is just south of the Hayes Road in the town of Florence. There are several stones that are broken and completely illegible, and several others that are only partially legible. The cemetery does not appear to be maintained on a regular basis.

The tombstones in this cemetery were transcribed by Kathleen Last and Virginia Ackerman on September 20, 1999. Photos of the tombstones were taken on April 8, 2008 by Kathleen Last.
