Short Springs was named for
George Short, first postmaster. In 1897 the name was changed to Ashley.
The Short Springs Cemetery was incorporated around 1901. Just east of
the cemetery is what looks like an old school building turned in to
the "Short Springs Cemetery Association" building. It sets
on the northside of US Hwy 64, NE corner where a rural, country road
intersects US Hwy 64.
These are only a few of the
Surnames you might find in the Short Springs Cemetery located on US
Hwy 64, one mile west of Ingersol and a few miles east of Alva...
