Beard Cemetery

This listing is from the book Cemeteries of St. Francois and Ste. Genevieve Counties Missouri, by Irene Hulsey Murdick and Marlyn Thomas Mauk; “presented through” Sarah Barton Murphy Chapter of the Daughters of the American
Revolution; Farmington, MO, 2000

The book gives the directions as such:
The Beard Cemetery is located on what used to be the farm of John S. Beard in Ste. Genevieve County, near Minnith, Missouri.

This one is possibly Name Unknown #58 or #60 or Mange Cemetery #64 in the Tombstone Tours book

Unknown Cemeteries/Misc

The following are small cemeteries that I found on some old papers in the Ste. Genevieve Co library – I am not sure where they are located (although they are most likely some of the “Name Unknowns” in the Tombstone Tours book) or necessarily who transcribed them.  However, they may still be useful and are still interesting.
Any text written about the cemeteries or their locations should be direct quotes from the papers.
I do not know the dates of the transcriptions
