This family burying ground is located on a farm in central Trigg county, north of Cadiz and east of Highway 139. In the Twentieth century, the land was known variously as the "Nap Ladd farm" and "the Litchfield farm," and was in more recent years owned by Mrs. Naomi Allen.
When last visited by the writer, circa 1984, there was hardly a trace visible of these interments. The number of burials is unknown. Members of the Bryant family may also lie buried here; in fact, it may more properly be called a Bryant family burying ground.
Peter Harris and Elizabeth McAllister were married in Louisa county, Va., and migrated to western Kentucky in 1833. Of approximately ten children born to them, three daughters settled in Trigg county:
1. Martha Wormwood married William George Bryant.
2. Mary Elizabeth married Jesse Tate Wallis (cousin of W. G. Bryant) and lies buried in East End Cemetery, Cadiz.
3. Sarah Francs married (first) William Broadbent and (second) Peter Kelly. She had six children and was the ancestor of the Broadbents and Morrises buried in Wall Cemetery, Wallonia.
