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.

This small cemetery, consisting of only two known burials, is located off Highway 87 (SE Main Street) about one mile southeast of downtown Stockdale. It sits in a pasture on private property near the last home of Daniel Milner and Lavinia Hunter Wheeler, who are interred here.

The Wheelers moved to Wilson County in the early 1880s, to be near their daughter, Emma Moore. Their entire married lives had been spent in Matagorda County, Texas where they parented eleven children. Tragically, nine of the children died at early ages, leaving only two surviving daughters by the time the Wheelers moved to Wilson County.

Through the years there have been scattered reports that slaves might also have been buried in the plot. There are no other grave markers or evidence to support the existence of additional burials in the cemetery.
