It has long since been overgrown with trees and there are only two tombstones that remain. Asa Stallings, lifetime resident of Craney Island Road recalls there were Allens, Watsons, Greens, and Brickhouses buried there and probably more. There were a lot of lightwood stakes and pieces of railroad iron at the head of some graves but most all are gone now. Data collected by Janie Stallings Hill, August, 1999.
