There is an access road running east-west cutting the cemetery in half. Graves are arranged in north-south rows. Cemetery is maintained, but many headstones are fallen over, broken and some have been mended. A combination of age and lichen growing on the stones make many of them difficult to read. Stones face both east and west. This is a partial listing. North side, from access road walking north DOB DOD Notes ROW 1 Willie L Jones Nov 20 1901 July 13 1925 "Gone but not forgotten" James E.
