Mildred Martin and Ila Beaumont read the cemetery in 1982 and I believe others may have read it later. It was read and photographed in January 2007 by Don Tharp.
The grave sites run in random directions and it appears as if some stones have been moved after being knocked down. So, other than listing them in alphabetical order, there has been no attempt to organize the listing.
Pictures of the grave markers are available as .jpg files. If you would like a picture, one can be forwarded to you free of charge via an email attachment. However, be aware that inscriptions on some markers are not legible or very difficult to read just as some are when viewed at the cemetery.

It appears that many others were once buried here, but the stones are gone or
broken and some graves may have been moved to other cemeteries.
