I too am interested in this cemetery. I believe it is sometimes referred to as the Freeman/Bridgeford cemetery. There was a person on this list a few years ago who had offered to take another person to the location. I think his name was Morris Peters, not at all sure. I had never contacted him but am very interested in visiting this site. I think it is considered a 'lost cemetery' Some of the Freeman stones were moved to the Oxford cemetery and are located in a small mauseleum on the side of the hill about midway in the Oxford cemetery. They can be seen and photographed. Chuck Counceller, descendant of William Bridgeford (buried in Freeman/Bridgeford cemetery.
