Liberty Cemetery is an old African American Cemetery which is also known as Ashton Hill cemetery.

The cemetery is surrounded by tall trees and overgrown with thick brush. There is not an on-sight caretaker for the cemetery. It appears that this cemetery is not a perpetual care or endowment care cemetery. Depending on the time of year, there are tall weeds covering the headstones and the cemetery is unkempt but no sign of vandalism. Many of the headstone/markers are falling over, broken, in disarray, overgrown or nearly completely invisible. Some no longer marking a grave itself and there are many unmarked graves and funeral home markers. The cemetery is surrounded by a chain link fence. The oldest grave is marked 1884. It appears the cemetery is still active with interments.

Direction to the cemetery: From Center take Highway 7 east for about 13 or 14 miles to Joaquin, and turn right on Farm Road 139. Go approximately 6 miles, turn right on County Road 3373 and go 1.5 miles. The cemetery is on the right about 100 yards through the cemetery gate.
