Cemetery 1944…………………………. Looks like a gate to a primitive road at "Dead Man's Curve" Many teenagers in the 50s/60s risked death trying to get the top speed around that corner. So I heard………………….. CR409 to come later to the left of primitive road. John Sweeny Sr (McGrew) plantation house thought to be here!

Same view 1995…….Rerouted highway in place, cemetery expanded across highway. Primitive road not visable.

Same view November 2014 CR409 in place. New RV park.
