Regarding your request for location of Liberty Cemetery, it is just off of Highway 50
between Bedford, IN, (Lawrence Co.), and Norman, in Jackson Co. Going towards Norman and
Medora, from Bedford, about 10-15 miles outside of Bedford, there is a small sign, on the
left that says "Liberty Christian Church". There is a sign on the right, coming
from Bedford, that says Leesville, and Fort Ritner, right before you get to the church
sign. Turn left at the church sign and go past the Guthrie Creek Church, and on for
another 4-7 miles. Liberty Church is on the right, the cemetery is across the road on the
left. My grandmother, Zella Mae Waskom, is the daughter of Isaac Waskom and Susannah
Cummins. Her Dad is John Michael Waskom. She married Gilbert Ralph Cummings, son of George
and Carrie Cummings. George & Carrie, their daughter Ruby, & husband Luke Fisher,
daughter Inez and husband Cecil Cummings , (Inez married a distant cousin with the same
last name.) and their son Lester &!
wife Bessie Cummings are also buried there. Also, George's sister, Mary &
Thornton Wray, along with many of the family also are buried there.
