Findagrave calls this one the "Myers-Denton Family Cemetery," and the entry for John Wesley Myers suggests that there may be more graves here. (

With him are his daughters, Johnie and Fidelia. Fidelia's stone is in the best condition of the original three, which much of the front being legible, as well as some of the inscription on the reverse. Johnie's stone is broken, having been unearthed only a few years ago, with only bits of it being legible.

An acquaintance of mine did a website some years ago, related to this and a few other out-of-place graves in the area, including the Myers and West graves, closer to I-30 and Bobtown Rd. (
