Ed. NOTE: Many graves marked with creekstones (No Markings) or cairn stacks
Cemetery in good condition, some care is given.
I would like to bring to your attention the variation in spelling of the family names Elsberry-Ellsberry and Hammack-Hammock
Also, would like to point out, someone named a cemetery on Long Rd. in Elsberry the Elsberry Family Cemetery, on Find-A-Grave, and that is NOT this cemetery...the one on long road is actually on the Alloway farm...
