Notes: “The report we received from some of the older people in the community was: Elder Stephen Hughett, Sr and his wife, Rhoda Duncan Hughett were previous owners of this property & most likely would have been buried here. Also, Ben Bond’s, first wife (name unknown) and Mack Montgomery’s first wife, a daughter of Jeremiah Spence were supposedly buried here.” Original Surveyor’s Elza B. Cox & Phyllis G. Phillips ©1980.

Note from this compiler: It does not appear any markers were found during original survey. I’ve added the names & other date noted below from my own research & these are the same names I will use in the index. I feel confident they are correct however; I cannot confirm their burial in this cemetery.
