Chris Kinney sent me the following information about Keen Cemetery:

Location: Keen Cemetery, Duette, Manatee County, Florida

Information regarding the photos:

• Photo 1: The entrance to the cemetery, note the orange trees in the background.
  
  
• Photo 2: Chancey Grave, note the clam shells shaped in the form of a cross.
  
  
• Photo 3: One of the oldest graves in the cemetery, Jacob Keen, a veteran of the Seminole Wars.
  
  
• Photo 4: Looking towards the back of the cemetery, note the orange groves and the live oaks with Spanish moss. The tombstones are a bit plain, but the location is very peaceful, and much like it was a hundred years ago.
  
  
• Photo 5: Another shell grave.
  
  
• Photo 6: View of the cemetery from the entrance.
