This interesting cemetery is very old but only had burials in a short time. The earliest burial appears to have been 1883 and the last appears to have been in 1916. There seems to be evidence that slaves and freedmen were buried here next to the families that owned them.

There are approximately 20 marked graves here and many more that appear to be unmarked. The cemetery is in a moderate state of disrepair and it's future is uncertain due to its proximity to development around the speedway.

A very interesting website for this cemetery can be seen here (recommended reading) (visit link)
