About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Lester Slave Cemetery is located on Cleveland Road on property that was once on the old Lester family plantation. This farmland became the Strother farm in the 1900's and in recent years has been developed into an upscale subdivision. In the 1800's slaves were buried here and as late as 1950 blacks were still being buried here. These burials in 1950 were descendants of the Howards and Hayes families in Clarke county.
