Thank you, Dovie A. Kaupke for providing
this list. She writes, "There are quite a few graves in this cemetery that do
not have headstones. Inez Reynolds, a descendant of many of those buried in
this cemetery was responsible for putting many of the headstones up and the
chain link fence around this cemetery. She told me before she died that there
were several slaves buried in this cemetery, but she did not know their names.
She put stones up for everyone she remembered their names."
If you have any questions about this cemetery, please contact Dovie
Kaupke.
