Just
east of town across the Little River is the Pioneer Cemetery - where
many of the earlier residents are interred. Cameron's city cemetery
is just SE of downtown, a stone's throw from the courthouse and jail.
Graves are scattered in clusters across two acres of grass on high
ground above forested river bottom land. |
