 McDonald Cemetery Kemper Co, MS
Photos courtesy of Kathy Rhodes Kathy writes, "There is a MacDonald Cemetery in Kemper County on
Murphy-Hardy Road near Moscow. It is on land that was bought by my great great
grandfather in the 1850s. When I was a child, it was on my great-uncle's land
and I played around there when I visited my grandparents. These are
the two pictures I took in 2000 on a trip down there. When I was little,
the old cemetery was shrouded in trees and saplings and scrub and weeds. You
couldn't see it at all from the road, which at that time was a dirt road.
They've cleaned it all out and it's visible from the road now. It was right next
to my Uncle Rufus Hardy's house. The old house is gone now, but Rufus'
barn is still standing across the street." Those resting for
eternity in McDonald's Cemetery include James McDonald (1795 - 1860) and his
wife Flora Campbell (1807 - 1883). James
