Most of the markers in this cemetery are not inscribed, are unmarked rocks, or no marker at all.
At one time, this cemetery was severely vandalized and many stones were broken and have since been removed from the premises. One grave had been opened and the remains removed. The family of the perpertrators restored the damage and placed a new marker for that grave.
This is a beautiful, peaceful setting and the current owner of the property keeps it in immaculate condition.
Elizabeth "Betsey" Leavell Inzer is the daughter of Edward Franklin Leavell and Rachel Williams of Georgia. For years I have researched the Inzer family who lived in the Trussville-Argo portion of St. Clair and/or Jefferson County with the intention of verifying the Inzer Cemetery interments. The Inzers owned the property where the cemetery is located. Their son, Robert Whitten Inzer pastored a small church that was on the property which was also used for a school. It has long since been torn down.
I have documented all of the children of Robert Whitten Inzer and none of them are buried here. The three graves that I cannot find after searching about 20 years, are Tempie Loveless Inzer, the wife of Robert Whitten Inzer,d 1863 and I believe to be the first grave entered in this cemetery; Betsey Leavell Inzer, d c1875 wife of Robert Dowdy Inzer and mother of Robert Whitten Inzer; and Fannie Inzer, d 1881, wife of Eugene Henry Inzer and daughter-in-law of Robert Whitten Inzer.
I have lived near this cemetery all of my life (80+ years) and have several family members buried here. See the memorial for Tempie Loveless Inzer and Mary Frances "Fannie" Inzer for other notations.
