DESCRIPTION:

It is located on what is known as the “Jonesville Farm” in a grass field, and 
the cemetery is not well kept, so much undergrowth and honeysuckle making it 
difficult to reach and read the inscriptions.

HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE:


The inscriptions are as follows:


William McDaniel
Justice of the Peace
born September 9, 1837
died November 1, 1906
Aged 69 years 1 month and 23 days
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still
A place vacant in our home
Which one can never be filled.

In Memorian of
Mary A. McGinness

Far, far away,
Where saints in glory stand
Bright, bright our days
His last word were my dear
Redemer bearing me to my glorious home.
