Also Jan 2016, I have gone thru to place Unknown for the first name also, however, it did not take...

The name that was chosen is from the only 2 more modern Granite stones in this African American Cemetery last known date to to be in the the 1920's era.
They are approximately 150 or more sunken in graves here, an effort was made to read as many field stones that could be by paper transfer.
The oldest field stone that I found was dated back to the year of 1800. On one field stone there was a small "heart".
The reporter for the Banner Herald; Wayne Ford, was so kind to take us here to this forgotten place in time.

Where the Rangers Cabin is located is where the Ashley Home was standing and there were about 6 homes in ruins there also, now destroyed.

I have taken a few photo's of the sunken in graves and graves with just field stones, to give an idea of the final resting place of those whom lie here...If someone comes across this cemetery and you have knowledge whom is here, please feel free to contact
