Comment | This cemetery is located 15 feet west of Vaughn Hollow Road at telephone pole #14. It is 50 ft x 50 ft, in poor condition, and enclosed with a stone wall. The historic cemetery sign is missing. There are 15 burials with three inscribed stones. It is on the tax assessor’s map #320, lot #36.1.
James N. Arnold visited this lot on 7 Aug. 1905 and noted, “On road leading from Rice City to Foster line, beside road, a lot walled, yard neglected, overrun with brush” (Vol. 6, Book B, p. 1111). Charles and Martha Benns recorded this lot in 1941, their #952.
Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book |
