HARGIS CEMETERY
Alexander County/Illinois Genealogy Trails
Picture contributed by Paula Haas
(The graves pictured are of Childers children who died young.)
This cemetery is located one
mile off the Olive Branch-Tamms Road on Wolf Creek Road. It is on
a high ridge behind the first house on the right. There are over
two hundred graves with many unmarked. If you have names and
dates of family not mentioned, please email me.
As you can see from the picture this cemetery is being neglected and it
is very difficult to find. If any efforts are made to restore it,
please send me an after picture.
