Hughes Cemetery
Perrysville, Indiana
Hughes Cemetery is not easy to find. It is tucked away
in a pasture
in Vermillion County, Indiana. From Georgetown, Illinois, go east on Mill
Street
for 2.8 miles, then turn left at the Forrest Glen sign. Stay on the
road until it comes to
a "T". Go east for 5.4 miles. Turn north on County Road 100W for
about 1.5 miles.
Turn left on CR 900 N and continue for about another mile. Look for a
brick house
at the top of a hill. Just past the brick house will be a lane that
appears to lead
back into a pasture. Go through the first gate and drive toward the next
gate.
Just before you reach the next gate, look to the left and you should see
the cemetery.
Go through the gate and drive to the cemetery. The older burials are
within the
fenced area past the cemetery sign. Several newer burials have been made
outside the cemetery fence.
