NOTES:

Rev. Watkins Denton and wife are buried in this cemetery - no tombstones there now.  Rev. Denton was born in Maryland in 1794 and died in 1864.  He married in Frederick, Maryland to Mahala Brandenberg.  Mrs. Fred Clark, 562 Lodi Street, Akron, Ohio is a great granddaughter of Rev. and Mrs. Denton.

There are many very old illegible stones as well.
