The entrance columns for the cemetery and gazebo were erected by the Hardin Camp Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1915

The were repaired and rebuilt by the Jonesburg Garden Club using individual contributions in 1955

One of the interred is a fallen Marine, Cpl. Richard Scott Haymes. With family permission the Warren County Marine Corps League named their detachment after him. He was a Warrenton kid, graduated from Warrenton High School, and is also featured in the book Vietnam MEDAVAC" by Walt Wisniewski. He died of wounds received in the care of others.
