Yates Settlement, in the town of Gainesville, was located one-half mile south of Rock Glen where Rt. 19 crosses the Oatka Creek. A small cemetery on the east side of the road was the burying ground of pioneer settlers. Stones have become broken and scattered over the years from harsh winds and rains. The cemetery is cared for by the town with a fresh flag flown for the known soldier, Berzillai Yates, each Memorial Day.
