There are thought to be 39 unmarked graves.  The cemetery was probably destroyed circa 1928 during the construction of a barn.  The cemetery was possibly that of the Duvall family. According to his will, Mareen Duvall’s third wife, Mary, inherited a life interest in “Middle Plantation”and Mareen Duvall raised 12 children there.
