I spoke to an older man who remembers this cemetery from his youth and he reported that there are many unmarked graves here, among them slaves' graves that were only marked with river rocks. Several years ago the cemetery was bulldozed for pasture. In the pasture, there are chunks of broken headstones. ************************************************************************ USGENWEB ARCHIVES NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by any other organization or persons.
