John Yarbrough, husband of Nancy Allen.
They lived nearby and may have been buried in the Allen family cemetery if not another family cemetery nearby, but owing to the illegible condition of so many stones it is impossible to determine with certainty.

His own parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Yarbrough, were probably buried in the family cemetery on their plantation on Broad River and Paynes Creek in Franklin County, Georgia, where their son Groves Yarbrough later lived and was known to be buried.
