Go four and six-tenth miles, turn left on county road (dirt) and follow signs to cemetery.In 1889 Henry Thompson and wife Elizabeth (Mashaw) Thompson lost an infant daughter, creating the need for a family cemetery. No deed was made at that time. Later when the estate was divided, daughter Frances and husband M. F. Huffman received the part of land with the cemetery. They deeded the cemetery to the Mashaw heirs. In 1986 a resurvey of the site found it to be 0.97 acre. Our thanks to Bertie and Clifton Bryant for their help on this cemetery.
