At that time I asked Evelyn at the library about it and she said "oh yes, we know all about that cemetery" and seemed to indicate it had been documented. I noticed a few years later an historical marker was placed on the road at the site of the entrance (you can't see the cemetery from the road but there is an oil company road that goes up the hill past it). There used to be some kind of old building near it (the cemetery) and it had an iron fence around it if I remember correctly. I still own a home just a couple of miles from there but am living in GA now or I'd run down there and take a look. Patsy
