Eight or more graves so badly overgrown is cemetery, count and 
description impossible  The most impressive collection of large marble 
monuments viewed in any Brunswick County cemetery, as a group, thus 
far.  It is a shame that such are hidden from public view.  Cemetery is 
1.3 miles west of P.R.46, on N. side off S.R.669
