Pine Grove Cemetery (Black)

This African-American cemetery is located near the center of the south line of Section 10, Township 14 South, Range 20 West at the end of County Rd. No. 156. The Pine Grove church is located one half mile north on Rd. No. 25. The cemetery is fairly large in size. A chain link fence surrounds the cemetery and large hardwood trees are found here. The Pine Grove church was located here at one time, but is now one half mile north on Rd. 25. The cemetery is still used for burials.
Driving directions: From the intersection of Hwy. 278 (formerly Hwy. 4) and Hwy. 76, go west toward Waterloo about 1/4 mile or less and take the first road to the left (County Rd. No. 25). Go 1.8 miles to a sharp curve to the left. Pine Grove church is located around the curve to your left. In the sharp curve across from the church, go straight down a dim road (Road No. 156) for 1/2 mile to the cemetery. This is a dead-end road.
Homemaker's Survey in 1970 Twenty-five marked graves were found that could not be identified when surveyed in January, 2019.
