Gravestone Photographs

Mt. Calvary Cemetery is near the southeast edge of town on West Jefferson-Kiousville Road.  It is on the west side of the road, accross from, and just north of, the West Jefferson Local High School.  The photographs below represent less than twenty-five percent of the gravestones in this cemetery, but it's a good start.

NOTE: I will be happy to post photos contributed by visitors to this page.  Write to Leona at ; please put "Madison County Cemetery" in the subject line.
