There is little if any evidence that a cemetery ever existed in this location. Reportedly, a family of six (Creeds) lived on this property in the 1800's and all were killed by disease in the same year. Four field stones were found of which three were fairly evenly spaced and in a straight line leading one to believe they might mark the location of graves. These stones are buried and only the tops can be seen..
