Small cemetery is located on logged ridge just east of Hickory Creek.The cemetery is highly endangered. It is not a map feature and is located in a very remote location on private property. There are no signs posted indicating a cemetery, and in order to access the cemetery, one must travel approx. 3.0 miles on winding logging roads that may only be accessible by four wheel drive vehicle. The cemetery consists of four marked graves. Two have stamped concrete headstones. One has a wood stake marker. The fourth has a Woodmen of the World marble log marker, which has fallen. A dilapidated barbed wire fenced encloses the four graves. The cemetery is threatened by encroaching logging, neglect, and brush fires. The area surrounding the cemetery had been recently logged and burned. The cemetery appears to have been visited shortly before the survey. Three of the graves were scraped, and the wood grave marker was marked with survey flagging.Inscription on WOW marker reads:Albert E. BassBorn Oct. 11, 1884Died Sept. 19, 1912Inscriptions on the concrete markers read:W. T. BassHusband of J. E. BassBorn Jan. 15, 1859Died Aug. 14, 1889Gone But Not ForgottenNaney Daughter of W.
