Six family members visited the cemetery in October to clean up and assess the cemetery for repairs. The cemetery sits on a ridge in the middle of a pasture currently owned by Donald Rush, a descendant of Thomas and Susan Pritchard Kee who are buried in the cemetery. Plans are to erect a fence around the cemetery and to also contact the county road commission as to needed repairs on the road leading to the cemetery. We spoke with Donald on the day we were there and he noted that the last burial in the cemetery was some 50 years ago, a negro family obtained permission from the family to bury one of their kin there. The gravesite of this man is unmarked. The relation with the family has not been determined if any. The cemetery is surrounded by tall trees and we did find a few rose bushes. Several of the headstones are broken and we plan to repair as soon as the fence is erected. The graves are severely sunken and need to be filled. There is evidence of graves other than those noted below, but they have no markers. It is also believed that the progenator of this family may be buried here but we have no proof. Infant grave, no marker, surrounded by bricks.
