Add PhotosMary Evelyn Parkey wrote in 1999 that the cemetery was used by Silver Leaf Nursery employees or was a community cemetery. She found 14 fieldstone marked graves along with 5 graves that apparently had head stones. When I, don sanford, first visited the cemetery in 2009, only two graves were marked, Daniel & Rhoda Burnette. It is very possible the other three markers were destroyed or fully covered by erosion
The cemetery can be reached from Highway 58 East, turn right onto Road 667. Continue and pass Silver Leaf Baptist Church which sits on the right side of the road. Drive past the next road to the right, there is a big white house on that corner. Pass a couple of mobile homes and 4 houses on the right. Next is a red house on the right side of the road which belongs to Lester Jerrell
Past Lester's house are a barn and a pond. The Cemetery is just above the pond. Pull into the barn drive and go thru the gate to reach the cemetery. There are no signs and no stones are visible from the road.
