LACY CEMETERY

            Lacy Cemetery is located off Edd Woods Road in western Madison County. Turn touth on ed Woods Road from Highway 412. Ed Woods Road runs south about 0.3 mile, then turns west and runs about 0.4 mile, before making a turn south and then a second turn west. The access drive is 0.8 mile from Highway 412 between the turn to the south and the second turn to the west. The access drive runs west along the northern edge of a field, then turns north and runs up the small hill. In 2004 the last 30 yards of the access road was planted in cotton. Lacy Cemetery itself was overgrown. The Jarvis markers are all in one group, and the Lacy markers are in another group. The other markers were hidden in the undergrowth and were not found in 2004. Anyone visiting this cemetery should go in winter.
