Pioneer Cemetery
Fulton, Callaway County, Missouri. - Lots of damage, this cemetery has been vandalized over the years. It is located near Westminister College in Fulton.

We believe that Nathan Herring and wife Susan Hill may have been buried in this cemetery. A Herring relative states they were buried in the Judt family plot, along with their daughter Mary E. Herring Judt and husband Louis Judt. Many of the Judt stones have been destroyed.
