            Thirty unmarked graves on side next to the bayou.  Fully that many on opposite side of highway where the old church once stood.  The church was used during the early 1900’s as a school until it burned.  Then a small one room school was built about 1914 and used until the district was consolidated and children were taken by bus to McGehee.  There were six graves located directly back of the old church near the line fence – graves were marked at one time with wood head board, names and dates carved on them.  In 80 or 90 years, all trace of them and picket fences that enclosed many have disappeared.  All of the many graves were marked at one time.  The church was built by Grandfather Trippe and he gave the land for a cemetery, about two and one half acres on each side of the road, a narrow country road at that time.  The holly trees were located in front of church and along the sandy road.  Encroachment accounts for the smallness of one side.  Lines always extended to the middle of the bayou.  Infringement will also be found there.
