Burials at this site -
Sansom W. Roberts
b. 22 Aug 1804 in Walton County, GA
d. 22 Dec 1849 in Fayette County, GA
m. Haney Hanson on 19 Dec 1833 in Monroe, Walton Co., GA
Their children were: William H. Roberts, Mary A. Roberts, Sarah T. Roberts, Lewis H. G. Roberts, Griffin A. Roberts and James S. Roberts
Family lore is that there were slaves buried at this site also but there are no other visible markers. It is on private property. On my second visit to this site, I looked around more for other markers and while finding no markers there are several places where field stones appear to have been mounded or placed as if they were marking graves.
