In a dingy corner of the Hannibal Public Library an old handwritten yellow pad has been found showing the location of many small and unnamed cemeteries within the county. The current existence of many of these are unknown, but further research is planned to identify, locate, and transcribe as many of these as can be found. The below map will take you to images of the township with the location of these cemeteries marked. Additions and corrections are welcome.

I have an obituary and Missouri Death Certificate for Miriam (Darr) Maddox (d. Apr 9, 1936) in Palmyra, showing her burial location as Flint Creek Cemetery.. The death certificate actually shows Flint Creek Cemetery in Emerson, MO. I can find no reference to this cemetery, nor does Find A Grave list it as a cemetery. Does anyone have knowledge of this cemetery? On your map that shows Emerson, there are 2 “Unnamed” cemeteries.
