Thomas M Durham Family Cemetery
Bingham Township, Orange County, North Carolina, USA
Additional information: The abandoned cemetery appears to have been a rectangle about 50'X 50' square protected by an earth embankment or berm several feet high. It is now filled with many ancient & decaying trees - tulip poplar, red maple, & white oak festooned with grape vines & cross vines. A dense, deep carpet of periwinkle covers the cemetery which contains 1 tall lichen-covered marked stone: Thomas M. Durham d. May 31, 1845, and at least 8 rows of visible graves & depressions marked only by pairs of rough fieldstones. Not all rows are filled, but there may be 60 or 65 graves. An extraordinarily large mound covered with periwinkle and marked by a large headstone is near the grave of Thomas M. Durham in an adjacent row to the east.
