Mount Pleasant Churchyard
Fairdealing Washington Twp.
Ripley Co MO
Mount Pleasant Cemetery is a new listing for us. It is not listed in any of
the cemetery books by Thelma McManus. It is listed as being the Mount
Pleasant Churchyard. A search reveals the Mount Pleasant Churchyard to be
where "the Simpson Creek School used to be".
Directions: Northbound on Highway 142 at Doniphan, turn left on Y
Highway and go approximately 1 and 3/4 to 2 miles NW on Y Highway to
county road 488. Approximately 1/8th mile past 488 turn right to Mt.
Pleasant Church. This road appears to be a long driveway on the map and
I would think there is probably a sign indicating the church if not the
cemetery itself (according to the map, it is the second road turning
right after county road 488 but it is not marked with a road number on
the map).
