This cemetery is located in the head of the Scott Robinson Hollow, on a hill behind the home of Berkley and Doris Boggs.  The first graves in the cemetery were the two little sons of Benjamin and Elizabeth Stallard Salyers.  Ben and Elizabeth were the first settlers in the hollow.  They built the large two story log  house that was later sold to Thomas Jefferson and Mary Jane Perky Addington. After the death of their sons they moved to Birchfield and lived out the remainder of their days.
