The only data that I could find and bring out enough to read was 'W. YANCY' on one side of the cement marker on the lower level. I am sure that when this handmade marker was new it contained much more information. I believe that these graves are the graves of two of the children of William and Elizabeth Yancey, who are buried in the Bethel East Baptist Church Cemetery about one mile from this family cemetery".
