From Forsyth take State Highway 42 to Maynard Mill Road. Once you get to the intersection State Highway 42 and Maynard Mill Road turn right go about 200 yards and watch the left side of the road. The cemetery is in still in use today but not kept up. It is over grown and tangled with vegetation. It appears this may have been a separate family cemetery on a different piece of land and others started using the adjoining lot for a cemetery also. I was not able to find any record for a name for this cemetery. There area bout ten unmarked Burials in the older section in which the below names are located. There about thirty others in the newer part with most burials from 1959 - 1997 Any information on this cemetery will be appreciated. Isabella Edge Wife of Madison Edge July 1867 - Nov. 6, 1918 Alice Askin Born March 1895 Daughter of Isabella and Madison Edge Buried to the right side of Isabella Willis Smith Mar. 1828 - Dec. 17, 1909 Harris McCough July 10, 1897 - Jan. 19, 1909 A.
