Crooked Creek Cemetery

GPS Coordinates: (N3926.220, W09650.867)

From Leonardville, take Barton Road, Highway 24, to the east edge of town, turn left (north) onto Crooked Creek Road, County 875N, for five miles to the intersection with Green Randolph Road, County 378. The cemetery is on the southeast corner of the intersection. This is a very Swedish cemetery, of the 95 tombstones, only 27 do not have very obvious Scandinavian names. Ola Olson, born 25 June 1828 in Norway and died 16 April 1872, donated the land for the cemetery and seems to be the first burial there. He was the husband of Olena Olson.
