From the Washington Co. Cemetery Book...'This cemetery, considered to be the oldest in western Washington Co., is located about halfway between Lincoln and Cane Hill off the Old Pump Road on a hill about 1/4 mile east of the road. This is on land that was originally taken up by Samuel Carnahan when the early settlers came to western Washington County...In earlier times this old burying ground was known as Bean Cemetery. It is said, the existing inscriptions indicate there have been no burials here for over 100 years....read and contributed by Mabel Carnahan.
