Cemetery Notes
In 2011 no attempt was made to locate this cemetery. In Marie Koontz Arrington book Mountain Valley People (page 370) she wrote; This is another very old cemetery in the Mountain Valley area. Martin Baker’s family was one of the older families in the area and his stone indicates he was 93 years old at death. The year 1802 seems to be the earliest death date recorded, but there are a number of unmarked graves. An effort has not been made to determine how many.
