((Update))
I originally added this cemetery and photos as Merck Cemetery. I couldn't find any information about this cemetery at the time, so I called it Merck after the community it was in. I have received information that this cemetery is called St. John Cemetery. I am re-adding this cemetery as St. John Cemetery.
This cemetery is shown on old topo maps, but has no name, just "Cem". It is in the old Merck Community, just NW of Parkin. I can't find anything about this cemetery or anything about the people buried in it.
Directions: From the intersection of US 64 & Hwy 75 North at Parkin, travel west on US 64 for 1.43 miles to CR 403. Turn right on CR 403 and travel north 3.10 miles to the cemetery on the left side of road. The cemetery is 864 ft. north of the intersection of CR 403 & CR 453.
