One of the Church members I spoke to while transcribing stated the church is over 160 years old. There are more unmarked graves here than marked. Most have a concrete slab covering the entire grave and a small metal (no longer readable) funeral home marker at the head. Some have no markers at all, but this is a transcription of ALL Marked graves located in this cemetery.
