STRAYHORN
OR LAVINIA CEMETERY
submitted by
Copied
April 22, 1972 by Mrs. John Ross Long, Mrs. Romie Morrissett, John Lessenberry
and Mr. Todd (guard).
This was all the stones that were found at this time. There were many, many graves that were unmarked.
Not too far from this cemetery was another that was fenced but the graves
were not marked. We believe this to be the colored cemetery.
Located South of Route #104 - inside the storage area
of the Milan Arsenal.
