At Spring Hill, turn left (south) and go 1/2 mile towards "Tower Hill" until a bend to the right in the road. At this bend, there is a white gate on the left side of the road with a small, white board with a "16" on the board. Also, there is a large tin silo behind the gate. Park the car outside the gate, enter making sure you secure the gate behind you, and follow the tractor tracks to the silo. Now you will see a field sloping downward. You need to cross this field about 350 paces (yards) in a southeasterly direction and there isn't really any kind of a path to help you out. You can orient yourself by heading just to the left of the quarry on the horizon. Another way to orient yourself is to locate five trees along the timber line whose trunks are readily seen and 2 electric poles just to the right of these five trees. Point yourself between the rightmost tree trunk and the electric poles. After going downhill the 350 paces, you will find an opening in a fence along which a five-wire electric powerline runs. You should be able to see the fence of Guthrie cemetery 30 paces straight ahead into the timber. Although this is a very difficult cemetery to locate because of the walk, it really is simple to find using these directions. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints also has a Church Grounds Department telephone (660)828-4325 if further assistance is needed. Maintenance Info: -- Based on an August 2000 visit, Guthrie Cemetery could use some more care. It is quite evident that the cemetery was neglected in the past and someone--presumably Elijah Gormen--has done restoration work on the cemetery including adding metal support brackets to the headstones. However, waist-high weeds indicate that no one is actively caring for the cemetery. Although the metal support brackets hold upright headstones that have been broken in two, they also cover some of the information needed to do a proper transcription.
