Can anyone tell me if Ward Cemetery in Carrier Mills, Saline County, IL is still accessable? And exactly how to get there. The last time I went was with my grandmother about 17 years ago. I know pretty much where it is but not sure who's driveway to turn in. Looking for Whittenberg or Mifflin. Thanks in advance! |

I still haven't figured out if Carrier Mills is in Saline Co. or Williamson Co. lol Now if you get farther down to Pope, Johnson or Massac, then I can help since I have several of the books for those areas. Susan aka MOM |

Carrier Mills is in Saline County (barely). I think I have it via the topographical map. Thanks. Any thoughts on who I could call or email to find out if it is passable? It is in the woods, up a very steep hill via someone's driveway. The last time I was there, you only had a little spot to turn around. So, if it hasn't been kept up, it is possible that I would have to drive backwards down a steep hill. Not a pleasant thought. I also plan to try to jot down other names & dates if I can get in there. There were only 30-50 stones so it won't be a huge task. That way I can help others out too that might be in my situation. Let me know if you think of any way to see if I can get in there. Thanks again for the other info. |

Have you tried posting to the Saline and Williamson Co. Rootsweb boards? Both are friendly and helpful. Sorry, I still haven't made it to Carrier Mills to hunt for some of my relatives that are buried there. When ever I get down there, I spend most of my time tramping through Pope Co. I also need to get to New Burnside in Johnson Co. to check out a cemetery there. If you get board, there is a Sonic in Metropolis. lol I found a better site with a partial listing of Ward Cemetery Blairsville Twp 8 Would you have time to do a look up for me in Creal Springs cemetery?

I don't know my way around Creal Springs very well, but if I'm traipsing down to Carrier Mills, Creal is on the way. I would be willing to make an attempt. As long as you are patient with the time frame. I have a hard time finding a spare weekend to do this stuff. Let me know the info and I'll certainly try. |
