Some people have suggested that this cemetery is a provisional cemetery for the families who worked in construction of the Martin Dam project. The dates on the headstones would not offer any different conclusion to this. It is located 7/10 mile southeast of the guard house located at the dam. The GPS coordinates are: N 32.67343, W 085.90013. There are only 7 visible markers. Each marker is identical in height, width, and thickness. They all are about 15 inches above grade, approximately 14 inches wide and about 1 3/4 inches thick. Each one has a brass plate affixed to its surface with all information on it. The brass plate looks to be about 5 6 inches wide 2 inches high.
