[All are listed on a common marker and the marker is at the north entrance to the cemetery. From the county road, turn into the north entrance to the cemetery and proceed about 60 feet west to the turn to the left. the graves are just to the southeast of this turn and are against the side of the road. There are no dates inscribed on the marker. The marker is of native stone and about 2-1/2 feet tall and about 2 feet wide by 3 inches thick. The names are hard to read as they have simply been scratched into the stone. John Romans is on the top, then Mary Romans, then Vonie Cline and finally Trix Romans. --- Lawrence and Sue Dale]
