MURRAY CEMETERY
Submitted by Bettie Cummings Cook CG
Copied by Bettie Anne Cook and Michael L. Cook of Evansville, IN
on June 8, 1978. This cemetery is located in Cloverport, Breckinridge
County, Kentucky and is the oldest one in Cloverport. Until recently it
was inaccessible due to briars and underbrush. It was so overgrown that
it was unknown even to many residents of the area. The Sacajawea Festival Board
approved a project using CETA workers to clear the cemetery after Bettie
Anne Cook consulted with Mrs. Margaret Smith, Cloverport historian.
