Directions to the area ↗

Twin Mounds Cemetery was named for the prominent landmark 3/4 mile northeast of where the town of Twin Mounds sat. The town was moved to a new place in 1903 as the railroad bypassed the first site. William Gilcrease ran the store in Posey, and Tom Gilcrease's allotment was nearby.
