NOTES: In 1985, this cemetery was reported as being on the Lester Roberson place about 6 miles west of Valley Mills off of SH 6. The directions at the time said to turn by the old chimney on a hill and cross the railroad. There was a gate on the right about 2-1/2 mile from there near the barn. It had a fence. A father was trying to clean out a well and was overcome with gas. One of the boys went down after him and he too was overcome. The second boy was almost overcome. The lone marked grave was of the mother. Four graves were unmarked.
