Thanks to Bill Whitis for the use of his photos!


This cemetery is known to be predominantly white and includes a slave section that includes unknown Union soldier graves. The slave section is around and behind a grove of trees. The marked graves in the slave area are listed below in the patron submissions section but it must be made known that there are many unmarked or stone/rock marked graves in this section.
