Audrain County Cemeteries

  Pleasant Grove Cemetery

"The church is extinct. It was a Methodist Church. It had a stone that said Pleasant Grove 1925. It is located Township 52 North, Range 12 West, Section 16, "Northeast Corner." It is shown on the 1877 Audrain County Platt Map. The best I can remember it was a little red brick church. The picture I scanned from my oldest brother backs up my memory." Shown above.

The church is extinct. It was a Methodist Church. It had a stone that said Pleasant Grove 1925. It is located Township 52 North, Range 12 West, Section 16, "Northeast Corner." It is shown on the 1877 Audrain County Platt Map. The best I can remember it was a little red brick church. A picture I scanned from my oldest brother backs up my memory.
