Marion Co TOC

When Bull Shoals Lake was built in 1948-1950 many cemeteries had to be relocated. During the project the graves were either moved to an existing cemetery or a new cemetery was built. Some of Marion County's cemeteries were relocated to existing or new cemeteries in neighboring counties. The following is a list of the new cemeteries scheduled to be built during the project by the Corp of Engineers. The name of the scheduled to be built cemetery was used on the individual cemetery Survey Maps, even it the new cemetery wasn't built. If the remains were moved to an existing cemetery that information is included below.

Casey-Yandell Cemetery: Either a new cemetery under this name wasn't ever built or its name was changed to Mount Olive Cemetery. Located in Mildred, Taney Co, MO behind Mt. Olive School right on the section line of NE1/4 & NW 1/4, S26, T23N, R20W.
