About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

A black cemetery, located on the Lamar Dixon Expo Center property. It was discovered about 1998 by land surveyors. It was hidden in the woods and located on a farm. There may have been the remains of an old church nearby in the woods, destroyed during clearing.
The marble headstones were damaged, laid over and covered with leaves. A brick tomb indicated the location of the site. There are 5 obvious graves and several sunken spots that may be burials. A fence was placed around the headstones and it is in the middle of a limestone parking lot. Identified burials here; John Bennett, Thomas Mitchel,
Simon Hayes. Two other graves remain unidentified.
