This is a family cemetery located on what was once the David Callaway Plantation near Hope Hull, Alabama

This cemetery is on private land and may not be entered without prior consent.

This cemetery direly needs to be explored, GPR (ground penetrating radar) should be used to locate and expose all graves and hopefully the property owners will protect this historical site and allow it to be fenced.

W. G. Robertson writes in his Recollections of the Early Settlers of Montgomery County and their Families (Montgomery, Al, Excelsior Printing Company, 1892): David Calloway,(note spelling) another of these old settlers, moved from Georgia and settled on the Mobile road, twelve miles south of Montgomery. Mr. Calloway was a successful farmer, and was a man that was highly respected for his many good qualities. He reared a large family, three sons and six daughters. John B. Calloway, of Snowdoun, is his oldest son. The other two sons died in early manhood. One of Mr. Calloway's daughters is the wife of William T. Mason; another married Thomas Davis; another married Mr. Hays; another married Clark Taylor; another married James Taylor (brothers); and another married Scovil Battle. Mr. Calloway lived to a good old age and died at the old homestead about the year 1851.
