NotesThe church has been moved away but the cemetery remains. In 1967 J. Robert Swank noted, "There are many unmarked and unknown graves. There possibly are some Negroes buried here. The second church building, of log, had a gallery to accommodate the Negro worshipers of the community." The majority of the notes in the "Remarks" column were from J. Robert Swank's cemetery records.
