Notes - Note on Find a Grave:
The cemetery is located on land that was part of the original Hamilton homestead (I think it was part of Lincoln or Madison County, or it could have been Clay or Owsley) back in those days. A member of the Hamilton family has lived on the land from the time it was homesteaded until at least the 1980s. I don't know if anyone lives there now. The original settler, Patrick Hamilton, and his wife are buried at the back corner of the cemetery along with a few other early family members. Their graves are marked only with plain rocks, and I don't know anyone still alive today who remembers whose grave is whose. When I was a kid, we would put flowers on the graves several times a year, and I'm sure my grandparents knew exactly who was buried at each rock. I only wish I had been more interested back then and written it all down. Except for these earliest Hamiltons, the rest of the graves do have carved headstones that identify who is buried there.
