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.

As far as is known, this burial plot only has two graves - Abraham Heard and James Keneday. They are few feet inside the edge of the woods shown in the picture, and not in the open field. It is said to be very near the Heard home and several old handmade bricks are scattered nearby and outline the grave.

At the time they were buried, that section of land was in McMinn County. It only became Polk the 28th of November 1839 when Polk County was formed after the Great Cherokee Removal.

GPS location: 35 14 51 N - 84 35 02 W.
