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.

This is the cemetery where 'Old' John Combs and Nancy Harding are buried. They were the parents of the eight Combs brothers who came to settle in Perry Co.

Josiah Combs, author the Combs family genealogy gave these directions of where the graves were Located..."John and Nancy are buried in one of the oldest cemeteries in Perry Co. It is located 3 or 4 hundred feet up White Oak Creek on the left side of the stream. Walking up the hillside about 25 feet from a persimmon tree you come to a wide sunken grave a few feet from a small revine. At the upper end and in the center is a crude stone, round or curved at the top. This is where John and Nancy Combs lie buried. So it was when I inspected it in 1933."

Note: This cemetery is located on private property. To reach it you have to go through the property owner's yard and you will have to ask permission. There is a chain link fence around the grave.
