Surveyed December 1999
Typed by: Betty James Smith
Directions: From Gretna, FL. Go Solomon Dairy Road (Hwy 268) East to Gloria Road, 2.2 miles, turn left on Gloria Road and go 1 mile. Cemetery is on left side of road. Walk about 250 to 300 feet through some planted pines.

Cemetery has been badly vandalized. Number of persons buried there unknown. Headstones thrown face down and over the years all the writing has been eaten away. A group of trees has grown up on a couple of stones and all yu can see are two small corners. In a few years the trees will have enclosed the headstones.

If someone knows of a earlier survey or has personal knowledge of others buried here please e-mail.
