Keatchie, DeSoto Parish Cemeteries of LA
Submitted by Norman & Jerry Mayfield
Baptist Chapel Cemetery is located on west side Hwy 5, 1.8 miles south of the crossroads in Keatchie.- There is no sign and is difficult to see from the road.
The property is boggy (use caution-walking, driving is not recommended)-and somewhat overgrown.- It is difficult to see the headstones from the road unless you stop and really look.- There are 36 headstones visible and a number of unmarked graves, evidenced by sunken earth.- Some headstones are-hand-made and hard to read while others are more modern.
The cemetery appears to be divided into two sections, a newer looking area to the right and back a way from the main area. The remains of a structure foundation-are here also.- Locals say it is not on private property and that there was-a church long ago.- The cemetery- appears to be un-kept.
