Located 500 feet west of the intersection of Reeves Road and Mallalieu Drive.
Easily missed. You have to go about 100 feet into the woods south - off Reeves Road. One car width lane leads to this cemetery.
The Benjamin Brister is located on Reeves Road, after turning off Mallalieu, however, it is no longer located in the woods. The lot has been bulldozed and a house trailer has been put on the property (as of @2005), along with much trash. Benjamin Brister's old plantation was originally on the property. Slaves on the plantation were buried around the perimeter of the Brister family plots. Their graves were marked with stones. Unfortunately, the person who bulldozed the property removed the stones that marked the graves of the slaves. The cemetery is in bad shape as of August 2012.
