~~~~~~~~~~ End of Undated Survey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NOTE: I found the above survey in the LDS Library in Florence, S.C. and from this 
I have surveyed the cemetery and this is what I have as of 2/10/2002.  Also,
this is now land for a hunting club.  It is not kept cleaned,
in fact I don't think it has been touched since the last burial in 1965.
