Martin-Ferguson is a family cemetery used mostly by the Martin family who lived in the area before and after 1900. The cemetery is located in a pasture near the railroad track and not far from the truck entrance to Dyno explosive plant west of Carthage. The cemetery is on Dyno's property. This cemetery has not been maintained and is in a very neglected and overgrown condition. I saw one stone that was so far down in the ground that the name and dates were buried and another that had only a rock for a marker.

Update on this cemetery. Dyno has sent a crew over to the cemetery and they have removed all of the brush that was growing there. I talked to them and evidently they are going to keep this cemetery up. It should look much better after the grass starts growing and it is kept mowed. Visited 7/12/2011.
