Take highway 98 out of Lucedale, Mississippi and go 
approximately 9 miles. Here you will see the Latonia-
Agricola Road on your right, just before you cross the 
river bridge. Take this right hand turn and go .7 miles, 
where there will be a small dirt road just past the 
railroad crossing. Take the left on this dirt road, you 
will come to a locked gate. You will need the landowner to 
open this gate to access the cemetery. Stay on this dirt 
road 1.2 miles and on your left will be a small woods road, 
turn on it and go about 50 yards. Here is another small 
woods road, park here and walk up this small grass covered 
road and the cemetery will be directly in front of you. 
There are only two headstones in the cemetery. There are 
remnants of an old fence on two sides, and it is grown up 
with brush and weeds. This cemetery was a small family 
cemetery, and over the year has been damaged by heavy 
logging equiptment. Jimmy Trussell walked this cemetery 
with the present landowner, Jeff Howell on the 16th of 
December, 2008, information was taken from headstone 
inscriptions.

Additional Comments:
This cemetery was listed wrong on this site, it was listed as the C.F. Ward 
cemetery, and should have been listed as the Cornelius Ward cemetery. I am also 
going to list the Cornelius Ferdinand Ward cemetery on this web site. I am 
sorry for the mixup and hope in the future to have the first C.F. Ward cemetery 
deleted. Jimmy Trussell
