Kirkley Chapel Cemetery, Harrison County, MO


Thanks to Phil Stewart who provided this survey.


Kirkley Chapel Church is located in section 32 of Grant Township, Harrison County, Missouri. The easiest way to get there is to start at Ridgeway located in northeastern Harrison County, approximately 8 miles east of Interstate 35. From Ridgeway, go east on blacktop Route A ½ mile to the first gravel road to the south. Follow this road south 5 ¼ miles. Church and cemetery are on the right (west) side of the road.
Kirkley Chapel was organized in 1889 following a tent revival meeting. Legend has it that the church was named after the traveling minister, Kirtley Little, who conducted the revival, but the founders of the church got the name wrong, changing a “t” to a “k”. It has been Kirkley Chapel ever since. The church is still in use for weekly services and the cemetery is very well cared for.
All stones that were present on April 29, 2002, when this survey was conducted, are listed beginning at the northwest corner of the cemetery and working south, then back up to the north end to begin row two, and so on. Multiple names on stones are indicated by an indentation and an “*” after the first listed name.
