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.

The African American section of the cemetery is directly north across the railroad tracks and can easily be accessed by going North on State Road 1469 crossing over the tracks then taking a right onto Moore Street. Cemetery will be on the right side of the road.

African Americans are buried in both sections with desegregation over the years, but newer burials can still be found in the primarily African American section.
