Henson Cemetery

Submitted by Urban and Norma Wilson

The following is a list of all graves in the Henson Cemetery which is located just inside of Jackson Parish, Louisiana. To get there take Lapine Rd. south off of Hwy. 34. Stay on Lapine until you get to Kilpatrick Rd. which is about 3 miles after you cross the Jackson Par. line. Turn right on Kilpatrick Rd. and go to the end of the road. (The road goes on but there is a cable across it put there by a deer camp.) The cemetery is on the right, on a hill, in a field about 100 yds. from the road. There is a gate and a small road up to the cemetery. Note: Kilpatrick is a gravel road so don't try it right after a rain as it gets a little slick. It's alright when it is dry.
