At it's begining, slaves sought permission to bury their people there. Later neighbors sought permission, then family members.
On March 27, 1876, he deeded 2 acres to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, to be used as a cemetery and church yard. He did this thinking it would be a permanet as opposed to a temporary tenure, He specified that the church erect a church building and to allow all denomininations to use it.
In the early 19 hundreds controversy caused the church to be locked up and it was used very little after that. Sometime in the intervening years the church building burned and was never replaced.
