It is now nothing but a broken down cement wall and grown over with weeds. At the time I am writing this, January 2000, it is doubtful if any tombs are left. Copied by Glenna G. Garner approximately mid 1980's BELOW IS WHAT WAS ON INITIAL LIST; ADDITIONAL INFO, IF ANY, IS ADDED.

(Merryman) 06 Aug 1840 - 20 Jun 1867 Age 27 Yrs 2 Mos; Son of Peter D & Susanna Niday Kefauver (Death Record Has Age 27 Yrs 2 Days; Single) It was reported by his lawyer that Peter Kefauver who came to Roanoke from Frederick Co, MD, and the father of the one child buried here, was also buried here in 1814. THE FOLLOWING RECORDS WERE TAKEN FROM ROANOKE CO DEATH RECORDS. THERE IS NO TOMB FOR THEM HERE, BUT SINCE THEIR GRAVES HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND AND THIS IS THE FAMILY GRAVEYARD ON THE PROPERTY OF PETER KEFAUVER, I AM PLACING THEM HERE WHERE OTHERS ARE BURIED. THIS MAY BE HELPFUL FOR PEOPLE WORKING ON THIS FAMILY. KEFAUVER, A. P.
