This cemetery is approximately 1/10 of a mile from the intersection of Brannan Road and N. Salem. This cemetery appears to still be active, and very well kept. The Elliott's of Henry County have a long line of descendants and through marriages has become an integral part of Henry County history. George Elliott was the forefather of this family, originally migrating from Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. George Elliott Sr. came with his sons George, John, William and Thomas, along with his son-in-law Richard Gardner. The Elliotts were nearly all blacksmiths. George Elliott Sr. and his sons served in the American Revolution as iron-masters detached by George Washington to make the extensive chains which stretched across the Delaware River, preventing the British from entering Philadelphia. Specific to this cemetery, Robert Henry Elliott married Sarah Beeman Owen, and they had eleven children. One of his sons, John Shirley Elliott married Mary E. Bledsoe (d/o Travie Bledsoe and Julia Hull Bledsoe). From this union were five daughters and two sons. Charlie Travie Elliott, the oldest, married Dora Henry and produced John S. Elliott, Walter Gus Elliott, Travie Lee Elliott White, Mary E. Elliott, Rachael E. Turnipseed, and Susan Elliott Steele.
