Boyd Graveyard

There is a Boyd graveyard near Fairfield which was walled-in in 1981. This is near the Mt. Zion United Methodist Church.

There are two sets of tombstone inscriptions. I am not sure which is this cemetery (and where the other one is.)

BOYD CEMETERY (1)

This cemetery located on what was the Park-Shank farm which he owned after
the Boyds, Park being my GGGrandfather, There is a nice stone there said
to have been purchased by William BROWN from Miller's and taken up the
