Fellow researchers;
It was called to my attention by a very nice woman who lives in Elmore and whom I met through my daughter's & mine sheep escapades., took us over Sunday afternoon to a cemetery which I believe to be the destroyed or who the Knox Co Genealogical Society in the early years--- meaning the 1970's ---called the Greep ~ Anderson Cemetery. Although all the stones we found in this cemetery belong to just one family and there may have been more as there was a deed to this cemetery. But a farmer is driving over it with his big machinery & time is of an essence to put a stop to this on account of he is destroying what little bit of dignity I feel these people have left. Laurie was very upset and said she has watched it be plowed down and run over and didn't know what to do until she met me. Then she couldn't find the cemetery and then she did, and took me to it. The only name of people buried there we found are Armstrong and seems to be the family of a William Armstrong with several wives, two at least by the names of Lucy A. & Lydia. There is also a son who died at the young age of 18 years in the civil war he is not buried there but a stone is placed in this family plot to remember him by; which now you couldn't tell that. Why anyone who knew about this & would let this continue is beyond me. ~~Shame Shame~~ The bean s are going to have to be picked here very soon and I would like to be able to have him go around the stones for now so they are not completely destroyed. Please help me and the ones who are buried there if you have any information or might be descended from any of them please email me. Thanks.
You can find the photos I took on Sunday and then again when I returned yesterday on my Knox Site

Click on above link then go to cemeteries then down to Truro twp., and Greep ~ Anderson Cemetery. I made two pages out of the photos I took and if you have a slow internet connection it takes about 8 minutes to download the second page. The link to it is at the bottom of the first page. The first page might take up to 5 minutes on a slow internet connection. But please help. Why anyone would not do anything if they knew the conditions and what is happening here is beyond me. I'm working on this as fast as I can to see what I can do. Other Farmers have been sued for this kind of treatment of and old cemetery even in an abandoned state. I know of several this has happened to. Thanks for your time & in reading this. I hope to hear from somebody out there.

You can also see the cemetery by going to my Illinois saving Graves web site

and clicking on endangered cemeteries and then down to the Armstrong Cemetery. It is what Laurie called it being's all the stones have the Armstrong surname on it.
