I believe the cemetary you are referring to is now called King's Cemetary. My grandfather and grandmother are buried there also. My grandfather was James Kelley Hanes, Sr.,born in the 1864 or around there and deceased in Oct of 1953. His first wife Lula Hutchecson was a sister to Looney Babb, wife of Alfred Babb. They had six kids, Odessa, Willie, Elisha and Lee (twins), Ina, and Vera. After the death of his first wife in 1900 he married my grandmother Sarah Whitmire and they had one son James Kelly Hanes, Jr. born in 1919 and deceased in 1983. My father isn't buried in King's Cemetery but my grandfather and both his wives, my father's half brothers and sisters Odessa, Willie, and Ina are all buried there. I think it's pretty hard to find now with all the building and roadwork done in that area, but it is still there.
