Coordinates: 36d 16m 25.0s N; 78d 35m 37.0s W Click here for Online Maps

Directions: From Oxford city limits drive south on Hwy 15; just after going under I-85 turn left onto Knotts Grove Rd. and drive 1.2 miles. Turn right into Oxford Industrial Park (Enterprise Ct.); Santa Fe Tobacco Co. is on the right. Drive approximately 0.5 mile, bearing to the left; Bailey Farms Inc. is on the left. The cemetery is located in a grove of trees behind Bailey Farms.

The cemetery is identifiable but is not maintained and is in terrible shape. A fence has been erected to separate the Bailey Farms' drive and the woods. Also, we were told a little black baby was buried there approximately 1975-76 in an unmarked grave (?). He was the infant son of John Henry Thorpe and Barbara Cozart.

Canvassed by Bonnie and James Breedlove, Carrie Belle and Roger Gillis, November 2001/2007.

There are one base for tombstone, and one fieldstone marking unknown graves.
