On left away from main cemetery is one grave with stone broken. Markings on this stone:
George W. Hartfield, Born March 12, 1842, Died Nov. 15, 1914
Around this grave and beyond, scattered through the trees to the northeast and northwest are
dozens of unmarked graves too numerous to register. Presumably these are graves of
former slaves of the Mars family, or other families who once farmed this area.
