The Barrett - Dixon Cemetery is in the Kilpatrick Cemetery Book but it does not mention another cemetery behind it. She may not have known about it. Possible that some of the old timers in the neighborhood would know who was buried in the cemetery. Also possible there are broken stones on the ground under leaves. Bill might want to take a look at it. Many thanks for the information.
