This cemetery is in Triangle VA on the USMC Base, section 4, at the intersection of Joplin Road and Jefferson Davis Hwy.

This cemetery has also been known as Locust Shade Sission Family Cemetery, Oak Hill Cemetery and Quantico Cemetery.

Some of the graves' inscriptions had painted on information, which was worn away and illegible.

I walked this cemetery, doing a complete survey in the summer of 1988. I have transcribed from these tombstone readings, with additions later.
