All the graves in this cemetery have a border of rocks surrounding each grave. Some of them spaces marked like this have no headstone, I'm not sure if anyone is buried here or if it is marked to reserve it for future use. Inside the chapel the ashes of Milford W. Howard are interred in the big rock. The plaque reads: Milford W. Howard Dec. 18, 1862 Dec. 28, 1937 I Shall Dwell In the House of the Lord Forever A few things to note: Anything that follows (F) refers to inscription on a marker at the foot of the grave. (VA) means that the marker is a military marker. Two entries together with no blank line between them, indicates that they share a marker. Anything in parenthesis is extra description of the tombstone or information that I happen to know about the person buried there. ROW 1 Unknown Morrow, James M.
