Apparently he buried two wives here and his children. His daughter Lacy Bozeman and her husband Thomas Randolph Carter and their children are buried there. Jesse Bozeman was born in 1793 South Carolina and had settled here. The farm has had many owners but there were no Stokes family headstones found. However there are several places with a few bricks on them which might mark some unknown graves. Pictures of these tombstones are uploaded into the Montgomery Tombstone project.

Lacy's stone is a tall monument with inscriptions on each side. T R Carter's stone was also a tall monument but fallen trees have broken it. Some flat stones have holes from falling debris and cattle walking over them. No fence and years of damage. Some of the earlier Bozemans could be buried here but it is too neglected to search. T R Carter had two brothers here and one of the headstones could belong to one of their children, but it is very hard to read. Thomas was the grandson of Captain John Carter of Edgefield County, South Carolina, a soldier in the American Revolution.
