None

When I visited the cemetery and property in 1978, 13 graves in a row could be identified: 11 adults, 1 child, and 1 baby. There were no tombstones but only field stones with names rubbed off. Graves were in a pasture on the original Lee property, under trees, where the cows laid on them, obliterating any names that may have been there.

Twelve of the names for the cemetery came from a letter passed down in my family from an uncle (Oscar Jackson Lee) who visited his grandparents and the cemetery there before the property was sold. The child's name was not mentioned in the letter.
