DESCRIPTION:

In the corner of some woods under a fifteen foot oak tree there are a number of 
old graves, only two of them have carved stones.

This graveyard is about .75 mile from any road.  There are several old homes 
nearby, but none of them are occupied.  An old home site has been found near the 
graveyard, which was probably the old Cameron home although no record has been 
found to this effect.  Even the oldest residents of the community do not know or 
have ever heard of where the Camerons came from.
