Original survey by Billie Douthitt and Elizabeth Douthitt in 1965 and they note “the land for the cemetery was donated by Billy and Hannah Copeland. There are 26 unmarked graves, twelve of which are said to be Indians. Eight stones against a tree have probably marked some graves. Three small graves, names unknown, on lost.”
