Just follow the road about 1/8 mile. The cemetery sits on the right side of the road. It is covered in oak trees and hickory trees. For purposes of this list, graves are entered as found. Starting at the entrance gate as you would drive in to visit and divided by access roads. When you enter, if you went to the far left corner and work towards the center or entrance road you will find the markers listed here in that order. That first part contained what appears to be 3 rows of markers. Those are the first ones listed. Then the same below those for the right side of the entrance road. Then you would go back to the left side and begin again. We found this to be the easiest way to record this cemetery. We also began in the oldest part and worked towards the newest part, with the Crips being the divider. The entries just before the crips are the center of the cemetery. The center being the part in between the entrance and exit road leading back up to the main gate. We did not put this in ABC order, because we felt that if you wanted to view the sites yourself this would also serve as a map for finding your lost relative. Parts in this listing represent the sections between access roads. Part 1. Left Part 2. Left Ericson Elmer Otto Nell Amelia Apr. 21, 1957 Jan. 3, 1954 Grigsby Ralph R.
