Original survey by Billie Douthitt, Feb 1966.
Note:  The Cemetery is overgrown and it was impossible to tell if there were unmarked graves.  Fannie Cozart is the wife of Capt. Wm. D. Carrington, who fought in the battles of Mansfield, Pleasant Hill, Yellow Bayou, and Brashear City, La.Researched by James Nash, Sept 1980.  All Graves listed were found.  Some markers have been moved so that exact location is uncertain.  There are many large markers containing much verse.  Many are broken.  The cemetery has been cleaned since 1966 and is in the process of regrowing, partially recleaned recently.
Roddy & Jackie Waites cleaned and straightened all the monuments in this cemetery and surveyed it in 1995.  They presented a nice history of this cemetery to the Leon County Genealogical Society.
In 1995 the family members placed a cenotaph, or monument for those buried elsewhere for the following people:

BULLOCK, Allen Cunigan         died 1866 age 64
BULLOCK, Letticia Bradley      died 1861 age 52
BULLOCK, Sallie                       died 1840 age unknown
BULLOCK, Aaron                      died 1855 age 25
BULLOCK, Mary                        died 1855 age 25
COZART, John D.                      died 1862 age 3 mos.
