Northwest portion of First Ward, St. Helena Parish.  Good road leading in - no
guide needed.

The Robert W. FLUKER family was buried here from 1818 to 1870.  (I now realize
the burial date is much later.  Two Covington babies were buried here as late
as the 1890's-Edyce C. Davis)

In Memory of
Augustine B. Taylor, M.D.
(Bossier)
Born April 28th, 1821
Died Oct. 4th, 1855
"Stop stranger, stay and drop a tear, where many a tear has flowed;
A man of worth lies buried here, A Holy man of God."

Records in the Clerk of Court's Office, Greensburg, La. giving dates,  tutors
were named for certain grandchildren of Robert W. Fluker, Historical Families
of the South, Vol. I - Boddie G. 929.2 - Gen. Pub. Co., Mid-City Lib., 7711
Goodwood Blvd., Baton Rouge, La. and copies of at least two letters from Susan
Kendrick Fluker to her sister, Elizabeth Terrell, Washington County, Ga.
naming her children who died young and due to the fact we have found no other
cemetery where any of this Fluker family are buried, we believe the following
members are buried here:

Sarah Ann, Mary Ann, James, Geo. W., Elizabeth Ann Thompson Edwards, Rebecca,
Deon Taylor (marker disappeared in 1970), Rowena Taylor, by tradition single
sister of Dr. A.B. Taylor, William, Jemima O. Fluker Hughes, Martha Ann
Elizabeth Collinsworth Fluker McCoy and perhaps others; possibly Owen W.
