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 cemetery is located in Civil District 8, Hickman County, Tennessee. It is on the east side of the East Sugar Creek Road up on a hill and just south of a TVA power line. The cemetery has many field stone markers but only about three graves marked with markers with visible writing.

It is thought that this cemetery was named for a Claiborn (Clayborn) family. For certain one Claiborn, Mariam Claiborn Dunaway is buried here as well as one of her daughters. Possibly her parents are also buried here. Her father was Leonard Claiborn, from the Greenville District, South Carolina, and settled on the Middle Fork of Sugar Creek in 1809. This was near the cemetery. He was an American Revolution War veteran.

Cemetery was read on January 16, 1976 by Ray Owens who counted 33 unmarked graves. Marion L. Laster added the five persons known to be buried there: Thomas, his wife, Mariam Clayborn Dunaway, and daughter, Sarah Dunaway and James Franklin "Frank" Clayborn and his wife, Antoinette "Nette" F. Turner.
