This cemetery is on Georgia Power property at the Klondike 
Training Center, 4826 Klondike Road, Lithonia Ga. You can 
only gain access Mon.-Fri.  Enter the facility and follow 
the signs to the main office.  They will give you 
directions and access to the cemetery.

It is surrounded by a chain link fence and is well 
maintained.  When Franklin Garrett surveyed it in 1931, 
there were 20 field stones and no marked graves. He 
interviewed a descendant who was able to give him the names 
of approximately 10 people who were buried there.  Since 
that time, the Sons of the American Revolution have put up 
a marker for Lewis Stowers, a Revolutionary War soldier . 
Two other stones have also been added.
