Patterson Cemetery is located 3 miles southeast of the village of Paint Lick, Kentucky. I have visited the cemetery three times. I met Sadie Kuhlman who was a local historian who had recorded as much information from the stones as she could find.

During my visits to Patterson Cemetery, I photographed much of it to supplement Sadie's cemetery records. To see the Patterson Cemetery photos, click here.
