Coal Creek Cemetery

Coal Creek cemetery is in Fayette Township, Vigo County, Indiana, north of Terre Haute off route 63.  This is a very old cemetery and cannot be reached.  It is on the private property of Public Service.  Bolton Road was blocked off by Public Service and the cemetery could nonly be reached by walking a mile after reaching the gate of the company.  It is not used or taken care of and is very overgrown and in a deplorable condition.  I would never have found it but for the help of a native of that area who led me to it.  Thanks to Bill/Pat Hall.
