About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

A historically Black Cemetery dating from 1884 - or possibly earlier - is still actively used (last burial was January 2020). There are dozens of unmarked graves (field stone marker or simply sunken graves) and dozens of graves not yet recorded in Find a Grave.

The cemetery occupies approximately and acre with the central portion being a hill top. Three sides slope down from the central point.

The older sections are heavily overgrown with brush, vines, and briars making recording graves there more difficult.

Modern day Fairfield Baptist Church is approximately 1.1 miles (driving) SW of the cemetery site. (Data accurate as of November 2020)
