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.

A reference to the Gravel Hill cemetery can be found in Joe Cole's cemetery book at the Fayette Heritage Museum & Archives. He wrote that it is a black cemetery and there used to be a church next to it called the Gravel Hill Methodist Church. Names of some people buried there include Grant, Brown, Blackburn and Nuton/Newton.

Gerhard Gerdes owned the property at one time and he is also supposed to be there, which would mean that not only African-Americans are buried there. Unfortunately, stones have been shredded over and pieces are scattered around. There are are no recent surveys of this cemetery. The Gravel Hill Cemetery is on private property just north of Janssen Lane near Anders-Daniels Road.
