The Rust Family Cemetery

From Milan toward Medina on Hwy 45. Turn right on Goat City Rd. The cemetery is approximately 2 miles on the left. It is a very small untended cemetery right at the road's edge. There is no formal sign naming the cemetery, but considering that all the headstones are "Rust", it seems likely that it would be known by that name.

The USGS has this cemetery listed as the Rush Cemetery.
