This Cemetery is not maintained. There are stones that have been toppled over and moved it looks as though someone has attempted or may have succeeded in digging up a grave.

There are a few unmarked graves..


Many volunteers have worked very hard to provide the researchers of Jefferson County a listing of Cemeteries and to provide pictures of headstones to help you in your personal research.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE the cemetery listings and pictures that others have worked so hard to provide and add it to any other website as your own.

Thank You for understanding and respecting the work of others.
