Read on May 30, 1999 In the late 1960's this cemetery was described in a publication as covered with trees and thick underbrush. Since then Mr. Harris D. Clark , descendent of Amy Clark listed below, has taken it upon himself to become the cemetery custodian. For the last five years, and at his own expense, he has cleared brush, culled trees, and cleaned and repaired stones. He began a Clark family reunion every Memorial Day weekend, and took donations, which has resulted in a wrought iron arched sign being installed this year at the cemetery. He is now working towards having the old barbed wire fence replaced. He is to be highly commended for saving this cemetery from extinction. In addition to the listings below there are over two dozen unmarked graves. Known unmarked graves are as follows: Rebecca Cox Galloway Mar. 27, 1819 Feb. 19, 1912 Dave McInterry(a traveller who burned to death) Mar. 7, 1884 Rebecca Clark Smalley Oct. 26, 1809 Jan. 2, 1882 Robert Billington Smalley Dec. 28, 1846 Sept. 5, 1906 J.
