Lawrence County Graveshelters

Last graveshelters for a while!  Once again, these were found with the aid of this really great website.

These were at the Morris Chapel Catholic Church in Lawrence County, Alabama:

Morris Chapel Resurrection Catholic Chapel Church, Limestone County AL

The cemetery included a lot of folk customs — curbing, sanded/swept, rounded, homemade memorials (and one even had a water feature)…
