The first known survey of this cemetery was done by noted genealogist Dr. Allan E. Marble on June 28, 1968. Per his usual procedure, he did not give the cemetery a name but instead assigned it an identifying number. For this cemetery, the number was 73. He recorded the location as New Albany.

At a later date, Genweb volunteers transcribed Dr. Marble's survey notes and made them available online at Rootsweb. At that time, the volunteers named it "The Oakes Burying Ground”. They recorded the location as New Albany.

Dr. Marble transcribed 36 headstones containing 53 inscriptions. The oldest identifiable stone is from 1854.

DIRECTIONS: This cemetery is located on the east side of Highway 10, just 100 meters north and across from Civic #5939, the Albany Community Church.
