A Cemetery Update- submitted by: Bill Wheaton 2006
The Robertson Co. Cemetery Committee, through a grant from the State of Kentucky, has made improvements at several county cemeteries and removed brush and small trees and cleaned up 3 overgrown cemeteries.
This grant was available for initial cleaning of overgrown cemeteries. It does not allow for the continued cleaning of them.
It is hoped that descendants of thoses buried in these cemeteries will maintain them or set up a fund for contract maintenance.
