A Brief History
Robert Tillman and Parthenia Dorothea Bailey's home was located where the parking lot is now. The first person believed to be buried here was William Caraway. He had lived in the neighborhood but had moved away by 1870. In 1872 he returned to visit the Bailey family. He became ill and died here and was buried on the property. The other people buried here are mainly descendants of the Bailey family.
