.....throughout the Lexington Water Power Company correspondence it was called the Gable Graveyard and was described as, "plot 40' x 40', clean, cleared, and well kept and near the southern end of the dam and spillway about 390 contour" (Columbia Chapter of the SC Genealogical Society 1981:23) The files revealed that at the time there were eight graves with inscriptions and six unmarked graves.
The graves present in 1927 and still found today include those of Frances Gable(**Inginer)(1835-1924),John Yninger (1814-1877), Julia Ann Corley(1823-1917),and Rebecca Monts
(1833-1911).
Present in 1927, but today missing, were stones for Ann Rose Yninger (**Inginer)(1873-1875), Michael Gable (1841-1915), Fannie F. Gable (1880-1881), and Catherine Gable (1830-1900).
We suspect that the broken stone is that of Ann Rose Yninger. The remaining stones might be found with probing. The unmarked graves likely include those with only fieldstones. The original notes distinguish between those with inscriptions--not simply marked--and those which are unmarked, leading us to believe that the important distinction to the surveryors was their ability to identify the name of the individual.
