DESCRIPTION:
This graveyard which is located about thirty yards from the John Y. Bristow house site, has been abandoned for a great number of years. It is on the edge of a very slight hill, and since it has not been taken care of it for a period of years, it is almost impossible to determine just where the graves are located. There are only four graves and none of them are marked in any way. The entire graveyard is covered with honeysuckle, and there is a small persimmon tree and a walnut tree growing there.
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE:The following, is a list of members of the family buried here:John Y. Bristow's widow, who married a Williamson after his death.
