Directions: From Philips Highway take Old St. Augustine Road, cross the 
railroad tracks and the cemetery will be on the left. Parking is limited 
and difficult.

Notes: This very old cemetery is owned by the Southern Genealogist's Exchange 
Society, Inc., P. O. Box 2801, Jacksonville, FL 32203.  The city has recently 
done some major work on the roadway in front of the cemetery, and will be 
placing a fence around it. The area totals approximately 2 acres. There are 
veterans from several wars interred here, including Union as well as CSA 
soldiers from the Civil War, the Spanish-American War and World War II. Many 
markers have been destroyed through the years, and much work needs to be done. 
The oldest surviving marker is for J. C. Hudnall, who died August 8, 1867. Many 
interments before that date had cedar markers. The last interment was in 1976 
for Chester W. Walker. 

Please note that many of the names on the list of interred do not have markers, 
but evidence has been provided that indicates that those named have been buried 
there. A * in the right hand column will indicate that a marker does exist at 
this time. An "O" indicates that there is a copy of the obituary in the files 
at the Southern Genealogy Society's library and the Downtown Public Library. 
An "L" indicates that data came from a listing by Margaret Mae Lee and Gertie 
Mae Keller, filmed in 1956. A "Dif" in right column indicates that inscription
is "difficult to read". Abbreviations used: c/o = child of; d/o = daughter of; 
ds = double stone; h/o = husband of; s/o = son of; w/ = with; w/o = wife of; 
WOW = Woodmen of the World.  Compiled by:  Jon R. Ferguson, 1278 Wolfe Street, 
Jacksonville, FL 32205-8306, 904 388-8959.
