Gilead
Church of Christ
Cemetery

Hart County, Kentucky

Location: This cemetery is located adjacent to Gilead Church of Christ on hwy 31-W in Canmer, Hart County, Kentucky. Brenda Dudderar gave me an old listing she had of this cemetery that I used to help identify weathered names and dates. Errors are inevitable. Please view and enlarge the stones to verify your research.
