Roberts Cemetery

Location:
The Roberts Family Cemetery is located in South Irvine, Estill County, Kentucky. With the exception of two individuals, all graves belong to members or descendants of L.C. Roberts and his wife, Mary Taylor Roberts. The two non-family burials were personal friends of Dud and Effie Roberts, son and daughter-in-law of L.C. and Mary Roberts. The cemetery is situated on property formerly owned by Dud and Effie Roberts and is now occupied by their grandson, Larry D. Horn, and his family, who purchased the property from the Roberts children following the death of Effie Roberts.
