I found only 6 stones. My grandmother is said to be buried here (Florence Reeves KORNEGAY) but there is not a marker for her. There is a story of a farmer pulling up the grave stones so he would have more land to farm. He was stopped but not before a lot of damage was done. I heard another story about this farmer that he accidentally got onto the cemetery while farming and it was all an accident. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Alford Crisp December 10, 1855 December 7, 1892 "GRANDFATHER" Fannie C.
