I did the registry of this little Chickasaw Indian family
cemetery in December of 1999. It is way off in the woods
and overgrown.There were two communities that once
were near. One was called Crusher since there was a large
rock crusher plant in the area. Later, there was a town
called Big Canyon which disappeared in the 1950's. It is
also known as the James family cemetery.
