Rountree Cemetery

Section 5
Oakdale Township
Washington County, Illinois

Directions (2008) By : Karla S. Skabialka If you're going into Elkton from Oakdale, it's the last street on the right as you pass thru Elkton. If you're coming from HWY 153 (I think is the #) from Lively Grove, it'd be the first street on the left. Turn down this street, you'll pass a yellow house plus a few more and follow the road to the end, you'll end up in the yard of an old farm house. The cemetery is just to the right past the farm house going north. It was all grown up again when I was there a couple of years ago. If you get lost, stop at the yellow house and they can point you there. Name is Sauerhauge (sp). No one maintains it anymore.
