St. John's Catholic Chrisoton Cemetery

Town of Boonville

This cemetery is located on Wingert Road, in Hawkinsville.  St. John’s Catholic Church was located on this site but the church is no longer there.  The cemetery was established in 1861.  The grounds are well taken care of and is surrounded by a fence.  An interesting note about this cemetery is that the burials seemed to have been done in order of death, rather than in family plots.  The tombstones in this cemetery were copied by Kathleen Last and Virginia Ackerman on October 3, 2001.
