The Adams Cemetery is on land originally homesteaded by John Adams (1762-1835), who is buried there. It is just south of County Road 442 (road visible on cemetery photo) on private property now owned by James Renfro. For access, contact James Renfro, 1543 County Road 442, New Franklin, MO 65274, (573)698-2042. The cemetery lies under a large Juniper tree, and the gravestones had been broken and strewn by cattle when it was found by Adams descendant Verne Hoffman in 1997. In November 1997, the stones were collected and a steel fence 16 feet square was installed by Verne and Roger Hoffman, and Jim Renfro, to protect the stones from further damage. The cemetery was cleaned and photographed in Nov 2014 by Roger Hoffman.
