This cemetery is located where the Peery Chapel Church stood nearby. The neighborhood story goes that a local farmer, driving a woodburning thrashing machine past the church, accidentally set the grass on fire, resulting in the loss of the church building. The cemetery was used by neighbors in the Peery Chapel community. The Peery families used plots on their own farms--(Robert Peery) (Evans Peery) (George Peery).
