COMMENTS:  This graveyard is located East of Canaan, Indiana on East Prong Road about 2 miles from Hwy. 62, on the east side of the road way up on Blackhawk Hill (about 1/8 of a mile before you get to the intersection of East Prong & Lonnis Hill Road.) I wouldn't have made it up there, or found it, if it weren't for the property owner taking me up on his 4 wheeler. This was a beautiful spot.
