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.

This cemetery lies in a sparse stand of pine trees some 100 yards northeast of the Fair Oaks Plantation house (on Blackshear Road about 8 miles south of Thomasville, Ga. on US 319 south), and contains many unmarked graves, almost certainly those of both slaves and servants at the Plantation. Many of the unknown number of graves have "disappeared" over time, while others are barely-detectable slight depressions in the terrain. Only the dozen or so listed have markers and are able to be documented, but others may be noted in as-yet undiscovered Fair Oaks records.

This cemetery is on private property and not open to the public; permission to visit it must be gotten from the owners.
