Additional Comments:
There is a sign at the top of Frank Dial Road that says "Payne Cemetery".  
Unable to find Payne Cemetery on this road.  The cemetery transcribed is NOT 
Payne cemetery to which the sign refers.  

However, John Knox Elliot, who is buried in this cemetery, was apparently  
married first (abt. 1836) to Nancy T. Payne, daughter of William Payne of 
Kershaw Co., SC who settled early in Payneville, just down the road from this 
location.  Nancy Payne Elliot died in 1850 in Payneville, but is not buried in 
this Elliott Cemetery. John Knox Elliott second married Nancy Oliver Nowlan 
about 1854, and finally Elizabeth Jane.  He had several children with each 
wife, but only Elizabeth Janes'grave can be seen in this location.  

There are several other graves that are not marked with markers.
