Lakey Cemetery
Spencer County, Indiana, USA
We've found multiple descriptions on how to locate the cemetery. The top set of directions seems to be the most reliable/accurate:
From Rockport, turn left onto Hwy 66 (East) & take a left turn at the bridge onto Hwy 231 (towards Chrisney and Jasper). Go past AEP (AEP's Rockport power plant) until you get to County Road 350. Turn left (onto CR350) & go up the hill. Continue up the hill & there will be a road to the left (Base Road. It may not be marked, but it's the first road going to the left). Turn left onto Base Road & go over the hills & the cemetery is on the left. It's located before you go down the last (second?) hill. It's hard to see from the road. There doesn't appear to be any parking by the woods, but it's a very low volume traffic area.
PT SW1/2 SW1/4 Sec 2 Twp 7S Range 6W Deed Book 54 p 178 Ohio Township, 4 miles north of Rockport on the Pottery Road. It is back in a field, overgrown and neglected. More stones than we found may be buried in the brush.
On Base Road 1/4 mile north of CR 250N at the bottom of a large hill. Approximately 400 yards off the road to a wooded area, top of the hill. Many grave sites and an old building and fence were evidently here at one time. Read in March 1986 by Sharon, Norman and Amy Patmore.
