About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

There is no evidence of this cemetery left to be seen. At one time there may have been 20 to 25 burials. Some tombstones were moved along side a wire fence; some ended up in ditches; others covered by farm land.

One man remembers seeing broken tombstones which he ran over while hauling hay from the field. Another man, Art Campbell, lived on this farm and said a former owner, Barney McDaniel, was probably the last burial (before 1894). He remembers the name GRAVES written on one stone. No one knows where the Hatfield name came from, except that there were Hatfields living southwest of the area and may have been buried there.
