There are at least 4 sunken graves, possibly more. I noticed after clearing there were some more low spots. Matthew Mile Jones, Sr. (buried 1903) and Harriet McLemore Jones (buried 1906) buried under large oak. Four redish, brown stones in a row are suspected children of Daniel Edmund and Emma Bradshaw Jones: William Green Jones, William Woodrow Jones, Rosie & Daniel Jones (all children buried early 1900's). Daniel Edmund (buried 1938) and Emma Bradshaw Jones (buried 1942) are the only two modern head stones. There are two more slates, may be Daniel Edmund's 2nd wife Martha Harrell and infant child. Daniel Edmund Jones was the youngest son of Matthew Mile Jones, Sr. and Harriet McLemore Jones.
