Lenora South Cemetery

Driving directions:  On Lenora's Main Street, go south to first curve; approximately one mile.

Legal description:  NE corner of NE 1/4 27-5-24

Historical Information:  The first known burial is that of Agnes Scott in 1883.  Family members had an original cemetery deed for Block 2 Lot 100 in Pleasant Hill Cemetery dated 1885.  Since the burial was in 1883, subsequent investigations into deeds and land purchases reveal Pleasant Hill Cemetery lies on property that originally belonged to Adam Scott, brother of Agnes, leading to the possible conclusion that Pleasant Hill Cemetery was planned around Agnes' grave.  Apparently the cemetery name was changed to Lenora South Cemetery in 1898.
