Surveyed by: Mary Harrington 26 March 1992 and Paul Herndon May 1994; updated by Buford C. Wilson 16 Feb 2009
Comments: This cemetery is in very poor condition. There is no fence and the stones have been placed in a pile in the center of the cemetery. Some of them are broken and parts are missing. The dates for these are from the earlier surveys. There are at least two more graves marked with plain stones. It appears there are other graves indicated by sunken ground.
