Chester St. & S Church St., in downtown Jackson, travel east on East Chester Street and Beech Bluff Rd. for 4.3 mi., turning south onto an access road that leads 0.1 mile to this burial ground. It was the cemetery for the DeBerry-Hurt families on the Rose Hill plantation. According to Mrs. Betty Young Hopper, as she told Mr. Robert D. Taylor, Jr., August 6, 1996, it was traditional in her family that black family servants were buried on the south side of this burial ground; that the field-hands were probably buried elsewhere on the plantation. There are no grave markers for the blacks buried at this location. Mrs. Hopper is a descendant of Mathias DeBerry (1788-1839) who first developed Rose Hill plantation.
