About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

In the Will of Nancy M. Wright Payne dated 1883, she states, "I give to my executor in trust $500 in money which together with any interest shall be expended in maintaining in decent order the family burial grounds on the old Banyan Payne home place in Tipton County, Tennessee." Today the cemetery is located off of Fayne Road in a subdivision called "Roseland Acres" most near the address given. The land is not privately owned and is in a stand of trees on "high ground", standing on the property which was once owned by Banyan. Several graves are located here. Most obviously are Banyan and Nancy Payne's, but there are also at least two infant children and some grandchildren buried here who did not live to maturity.

This family cemetery has not been maintained and is in danger of "being swallowed up" by its natural surroundings of trees and leaf foliage. Much thanks to David Gwinn, historian for Tipton County, Tennessee, who has intimate knowledge of many family cemeteries nearby. Without his guided assistance, this cemetery may not have been rediscovered. -- Pat Iverson, December 26, 2016.
