This cemetery was known as the Black Cemetery.It has 6 houses on the property.We cannot guess how many are buried there or how many stones were removed.allegedly,residents were told if they found anything on the property that it was property of the state.The land was farmed by a black man who removed all the stones and tossed them in a ditch or the gulley facing the far east side of the property where there is a dead end street of West Pecan Avenue & Scott Street.
