Nield Family Cemetery
Boyle County, Kentucky, USA
CONDITION: The cemetery is located atop a knoll, surrounded by the remains of a rock fence with a wrought iron gate for entrance to the gravesites. Mr. Hundley has installed a barbwire fence outside the rock fence to protect it from grazing cattle. The rock fence is deteriorating and falling down in areas, the gravestones are falling down and, in some instances, buried, and the area is pretty well covered with trees and tree limbs which have fallen and rotted.
HISTORY: This cemetery has been known by various names during its history. Some of them were/are:
French Cemetery
McGinnis Farm Cemetery
Nield Family Cemetery
Former owners [and the current owner] are:
Bonta
William Sevier
McGinnis
Cocanougher
Bill Hundley [Current]
The farm is still referred to as the 'Sevier Farm' by some of the 'Old timers' in the area, however is now known as the Hundley Farm.
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT PERMISSION BE OBTAINED PRIOR TO GOING TO THE CEMETERY!
I have additional photographs of the cemetery that I will be more than happy to share. [email protected]
