Add PhotosThis cemetery was legally moved by court order following a petition to the county court by Klenke family descendents. It is believed that the persons buried here were slaves of the Jones family who had, in all liklihood, taken the name Jones as their surname. The unmarked graves were identified using divining rods, as approved by the court, and thence moved to a single mass grave at Pleasant Hill Cemetery, Villa Ridge. By legal definition, this site is no longer a cemetery but is recorded here as it appears in early Franklin County records.
