Basically all were the same information. This cemetery has a lot of unmarked graves. Either a tombstone was not put down or has been broken or deteriorated over the years. Some notes state that they discontinued using this cemetery because so many unmarked graves were uncovered when attempting a new burial. =============================================================================================================================================== Last Name First, Middle or Maiden Date of Birth Date of Death Remarks and/or Tombstone Inscription =============================================================================================================================================== Adams Brittain 6/15/1759 8/5/1834 Born Sussex County, Virginia “He was a soldier of the Revolution and 50 years a respectable member of the M.E.
