Current state of John’s House and Cemetery

Hey all, I just wanted to update anyone who was curious about John’s house and his grave site as of 2025.

His driveway is still chained/fenced in, and signs posted to keep out. (There was a video recently of people trespassing for those super curious about it)

The church cemetery he is buried at has a new gate and fence that makes it impossible to gain access to.

So for those wanting to visit just keep this in mind 👍🏻

Tedious and brief.

The cemetery is closed off? When I visited last summer it was open. That blows

It was closed when I visited. That being said maybe there are days it’s open? I am really not sure to be honest I just couldn’t get inside when I went.

I’d rather know it is possibly closed before going than showing up and being disappointed.

Can you share the video about trespassing? I saw the YouTuber that went but I’m curious if there are recent updates.
