Red Top Christian Church Cemetery Traditional Cache

But don't visit this site without walking among the stones. In particular notice the earliest set of stones comprised of matching head and foot stones each for a man and for his wife. The primitive style markers, referred to as anthropomorphic, were locally carved and engraved. Notice the engraving. There are only a few of this type of marker in the Boonslick area.

From the most primitive to some very elegant, this cemetery proved a great learning experience for me as I wandered through and noted the evolution of stones from early to present.
