Some say he was hung by the Blackwell Gang, some say by thieves, and others say he was hung by angry conscripts. The only agreement is that he was hung "to an apple tree." Other Veterans buried here are Capt. William Shelby, and Dr. John A. McNeil both of whom served in the Confederate Army, and Charles Harrell who served in the Navy during World War II. The cemetery was registered with the Alabama Historical Commission by Katherine Reece. Click for a larger image
