Sledge Family Cemetery
Montgomery County, Mississippi, USA
On the old Charlie Campbell farm NE of Duck Hill go about 1 mile north of Duck Hill and turn right (east) onto Riley Road. Travel about 1/2 mile and just as you cross the Bogue Creek iron bridge take a right (south) onto an old abandoned public road. Travel .6 mile, a field road turns right, keep straight (left) and continue on past an old house place on the right. At .8 mile another road forks to the right (south), take this road and continue on it. At one mile you will pass an old house place with pecan trees on the right. Just beyond at 1/1 mile, a large oak tree is on the left. Here turn off the road to the right (south) through a gate into a pasture. (It is .8 mile from here on through the "main" road to exit on Riley Road). From this gate travel about 50 yards and turn right (west) around the cedar trees and continue across the pasture in a westerly direction following the ridge for a total from the gate of around .4 mile. At that point, just before reaching the woods, turn left about 90 degrees to a southerly direction. Travel about .15 mile to edge of the woods on your right (west). The edge of the woods in front (to south) will be about 80 to 100 yards further. Stop here and walk into the woods in a direction slightly south of west (250 degrees by compass) about 90 yards along a ridge, and there will be found the two-grave cemetery. A wrought iron fence surrounds the about 5 ft by 8 ft family plot. Sec 30 T 20 N R6E
Copied by Norman L. Ezell. Note: There is no evidence of other graves in the vicinity. There are many sunken holes over the area, but these are left-over fox holes from military maneuvers during World War II training days of Camp McCain.
