Located in Throckmorton Co.on State Hwy 283,about 3 miles north of Fort Griffin State Park ,just passed the 

Shackelford Co. line. Turn west at cemetery sign.Here you will have to get out and open a gate, as it is on 

private land with loose livestock. The landowner requests that you close the gate behind you.  Follow road 

about 1 mile. It is a family cemetery with 

connections to the Ledbetter, Shelton, and Perkins's.  There are, however, about two burials that are not 

related to these families.  A chainlink fence surrounds the cemetery and is very well maintained.
