Centenary or Methodist
Epis. (Union)
| Name/History |
Centenary--misspelled
"Centenery" in the DAR transcription--is the
same thing as the Methodist Epis. (M/E) cemetery (the M/E
name derived from the 1998 plat book.) The cemetery is
named after the Methodist church built in 1886,
discontinued in 1979, and dismantled in 1989. The
cemetery is plotted on the 1876, 1898, and 1916 plat
books as well as the Missouri General Highway Map; while
the church is plotted on these maps excepting, of course,
the 1876 plat which shows the cemetery alone. |
