*Tombstone reads: D. Vann b. 1794. David Vann was the original owner of the land which this cemetery is located.

David was the son of Joseph David Vann b. 1763 d. 1836, and Permelia/Lamila Rowe b. in Burke Co., GA. He had 2 sisters: Permelia/Milly Barfield Vann b. 11 Oct 1802 in Buncombe Co., NC, who married Micajah Sansom; and Martha who married John Garner.

He married Sarah (maiden name unkn)(buried at this cem.). They had the following children: Sanders Washington b. 1820 and William Kinney "Clem" b. 1822 (both buried at this cem.); John David b. 1824; Samuel "Sampson" Thomas b. 1827; Augustus M. b. 1829; Mary Sue b. 1830; Andrew Jackson b. 1833; Martha Adeline b. 1837; Benjamin Vann b. 1841; and Missouri Vann b. 1843.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
His son, Augustus M. Vann, petitioned the court on 7 Jan 1867 in Floyd County, Georgia. Thus we know that David was dead by then. Since it was near the holidays, David likely died in December 1866. Augustus stated that his father was deceased and died without a will, and requested to administer his father's estate. It was filed in Will Book B, pp. 434-435.
