There, beside the old plantation house, is an old cemetery called either the “Stafford Cemetery” or the “Stafford Family Cemetery”. Not many graves in it. I have just gone to that Web site, opened it, gone to Rapides Parish, scrolled to the 3rd of 4 “pages” and found two apposite entries, one for “Stafford Cemetery” and the other for the “Stafford Family Cemetery”. “Stafford Cemetery” I can identify as definitely the one beside the plantation house and of which I have pictures myself; it is the place of re-burial of Brig. General Leroy Agustus Stafford and I have in memory pictures I took myself of that cemetery, including the General’s tomb. I think it possible that, although there are two “Stafford” entries, both may in fact relate to the same cemetery. Beside “Stafford Cemetery” is a clickable box which will take you to a detailed account of that cemetery. There is also an aerial photo which may be pulled up from a box for “Stafford Family Cemetery.’

The photos are from the grave markers mentioned in the Grimball section in the “old Cheneyville Cemetery” on the banks of the Bayou Boeuf.
