Cemetery Notes
Taken from J. Robert Swank's records done in 1967. Swank noted "there is evidence of other grave here." Notes in "Remarks" column were taken from Patricia Turner Ritchie's book in 1999 & 2002. Ritchie writes "The Trumbo family came to Brocks Gap in the 1740s. This cemetery is on a 400 acre tract that the first Trumbo, Jacob Trumbo (I), bought; it is likely that he is buried here, but there is no marker. The first recorded burial here was 1823.
