The cemetery behind the Little Flatrock Christian Church is odd in that all the headstones face away from the church. It is located on County Road 450 E between 200 S and 300 S. The easiest way to get there is to take US 52 southeast to 200 S. It is very well maintained, the church is charming and they have even done some restoration work on old broken headstones—that is something we don’t see very often in these rural cemeteries. If you park near the basketball slab, straight ahead are a couple of tall obelisk markers, one has a draped urn on top and the other is plain with a cedar tree to the west of it. This is the marker of George and Eliza Street, they were 84 and 86 when they died on the same day in 1885—doesn’t that make you wonder what happened? Trinity is beneath the base of the marker on the south side near the east corner behind a couple of small rocks. I know there is also a geocache in this cemetery but haven’t been able to find it.
