Mastin-Moore Cemetery

Location: This cemetery is located in Hartford Township, T.51N.-R.3W., in Section 16, Southwest of Indian Creek Church on a farm presently owned by Lily & Charles Cherry. It was copied by Opal McCullum. Everett Wells Moore, Sr., fearing the old family cemetery was falling into ruin, moved 5 Moore headstones to Indian Creek Baptist Church Cemetery and reset them there. Although the actual graves are still in this cemetery, they are now recorded with the Indian Creek listings.
