Located along a cotton field in rural Saluda County, this gravesite has about 20 graves with markers. An Eagle Scout project helped restore this cemetery. The cemetery is surrounded by round concrete pillars about 3 feet high, with an American flag flying over it. The oldest gravesite is Lt. Hiram Holstein buried in 1862. The most recent was John Lewis Holstein buried in 1911.

Just an oddity, the word Cemetery is misspelled as Cemetary on the sign the Eagle Scouts put up.
