Elizabeth Adkins was omitted from the Moore County Cemetery book mentioned
below. Also there are large piles
of rocks and graves obviously outlined with stone in the back (western) side of
this cemetery. William & Nancy Spencer and Susan Eaton at the (eastern) side of
the cemetery toward the highway have stones outlining the graves along with a
wrought iron fence surrounding. Elizabeth Adkins toward the western side of the
cemetery has un-carved stones outlining her grave and also stones piled up to
protect the grave. Sometimes since the outlining rocks shift and fall that is
not clear.
