Mt. Zion Cemetery [found answer]

I'm having trouble figuring out which Mt. Zion Cemetery John C. Ball d. July 14, 1897, wife Lovina Ball d. April 20, 1921, son Robert C. Ball d. Oct. 3, 1917, and his wife Marietta Ball d. April 28, 1927 are buried in. I've found several Mt. Zion Cemeteries posted on the internet but with no description as to which is which. One is labeled Mt. Zion Baptist Church Cemetery, one is referred to as being in Gower. Then there's a reference to a Plattsburg location.Thanks to anybody who can help.

there is another mt zion by plattsburg. it has been found and people have cleaned it up and did meny repairs. for years i have drove by it and never knew it was there
but sence that time people have been confuesed on were mt zion is and sence the church was the start of the cemetery "that is why we call it baptist" there is only 2 mt zions u can find both on findagrave.com and you can still google starfield mo to get directions to mt zion baptist.

Hello

I don't know if you still need this info or not, but your relatives are buried at Mt Zion Cemetery which is about 9 miles northwest of Plattsburg MO on RT K. This cemetery is between Gower MO and Plattsburg MO in a community known as Starfield MO. The church is still there. I have many relatives buried there. It is a very well kept cemetery. Robert C Ball b: 12-11-1847 d:10-3-1917,
Marietta Ball b:3-12-1852, d: 4-28-1927
Both are buried in row 22
John C Ball b: 11-20-1806, d. 7-14-1897
Lovina B 1-15-1819, no death date given
John & Lovina are buried in Row 13.
Hope this helps.
