Holt County, Missouri

Easter Cemetery
(Bigelow Township)

      A few broken and displaced headstones, are all that is left, from what was once the Easter Cemetery. Apparently, the cemetery itself was plowed over. These few headstones, along with some broken stones, were rescued by the Holt County Historical Society. They now reside at the Fortescue Church.
