Here's a few pics I took this weekend. After driving for a few hours up and down numerous dirt roads we found the 1800's grave site. About 8 years ago they sort of cleaned it out, removed 40 trees. The actual site goes deeper in the wood. Most the larger ones are marked with family names, but about 50-75 simple rock headstones, most belonging to slaves.


A few slave headstones


They're actually 3 family cemeteries on the total propery, one from the 1700's at the original cabin, the larger near the plantation{above pictures} and one from the early 1900's.
