Some of the interments after the purchase were African American soldiers from Camp Sevier and burials from Hopewell Tuberculosis Hospital, which was on the grounds of the County Home. In the 1930s, Six of the nine acres were sold, leaving the current thee acre site.
After the last burial in 1967 the cemetery fell into disrepair and was forgotten, eventually becoming a dumping ground. The community has recently come together and volunteers are working to revive this cemetery.
