The Wallace Campbell family arrived in 1879 and chose this specific area of their land to create a cemetery because there was a magnificent old oak tree there. About 18 graves were placed behind the barn at the edge of the old oak tree. As late as the 1960s the farmer was known to have maintained a fence around the site, and he often mowed the grounds.

    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.
