CEMETERY.Cumberland.View.Madison

Cumberland View Cemetery, Madison County, Kentucky

There is only a small portion of this family cemetery remaining. It is
located on private property that once belonged to "Cuff" Daniel and
"Tough" Daniel MAUPIN. It is found behind a house in front of the
Okonite Plant on US-25 (at Terrill Junction) South of Richmond. Many
years ago cattle were allowed to wander through the cemetery and it was
badly damaged. In the early 1950s all of the "Fancy" headstones were
removed and placed in the Richmond Cemetery. It was allowed to become
overgrown until the plant was built; now it is kept very well. In
addition to the few stones remaining there are several pieces and some
stones that were markers. There are many unmarked graves in this family
place including those of the two Revolutionary War veterans and their
wives.

This family plot was checked by Loren Adams in 1987 and rechecked by
Donal S. West in 1989. There was an earlier inventory and those stones
reported but not found are listed at the end.
