Originally located on the Rumsey farm, about two miles northeast of Flat Rock.

It now is alongside the highway in a more residential area as use of the land has changed. I am not sure who owns and maintains it at this time.

These are all known burials. Many stones are severely, worn, missing or damaged. Information from stones and previous transcriptions, complete up to May 10, 2008.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
