This abandoned small family cemetery on the homestead of John E. Long
dates from 1893. The last of five known family burials was in 1900. Only
two headstones survive. The cemetery is located on private land just
south of County Road 27 midway between County Roads HH and JJ in the
NE¼ Section
20 Township 1 South Range 43 West. To get to the cemetery from Wray go
south about five miles on US 385, then follow the Beecher Island signs
one mile east and three miles south to Road 27. The cemetery is ½ mile
west on Road 27.
