Greetings,

I am from Seattle and will be sojourning through Columbia during the first week of October. I am intending to locate the Royse Family Cemetery which is located somewhere along KY 206. Having walked through the google photos of the highway, it's not clear where the cemetery may actually be. My guess is in the vicinity of the Royse Road.

My interest in locating this early pioneer cemetery is that I am of the Royse family. My great great grandfather was born in or near Columbia. He moved away before the Civil War. His grandfather was one of the last Revolutionary War veterans in Adair County. There are only twenty plus Royses in this cemetery, but a stop there is important to me as many generations of my relations are from Columbia.

Any address, landmarks or other tidbits would be very much appreciated.
