Turn left on Autauga county 165. Go about 1.2 miles to a private driveway on the left. Travel down the drive about .2-.3 miles, and cemetery is on the left. When I visited, 12/16/2000, the cemetery was overgrown completely about 24-36 inches tall, and large, round hay bales were places around the perimeter. The cemetery is on private property, and as I was recording information, the owner drove up in his tractor. He offered some tidbits of information. He said that they believed John P. DeJarnette served in the Alabama State Legislature. He also said that he believes some of the DeJarnetts were Lawyers in Prattville, which is county seat of Autauga. He also said that a previous land owner of the property the cemetery is on moved some of the headstones into a nearby woods. He said the cemetery is listed on all the maps, and in it's current state is too small for that kind of recognition. There were evidences of a large boundary of brick extending twenty feet or more away from the current location of the cemetery. He said the man that moved the stones was criticized by the local folk, so he moved some of the stones back, and what remains are these stones. He also told me of another cemetery that he discovered in the woods about 3/8 of a mile from DeJarnette cemetery. He believes this may be all or some of the stones that this individual moved. He pointed this location out to me and I will investigate it in the future. What follows are the current stones as of December 2000, a listing done previously by Larry W. Nobles, and family history of the DeJarnettes. This is a listing of the stones that had complete readable names as of December 2000; survey done by Glen Weldon: DeJarnette, Fannie E.
