This cemetery is located south of the Poplar school House road. South of where the Poplar school house once set, which is the residence of Wayne and Barbara Harris. It is located on the property of the White Poplar Hunting Club. The cemetery sets east of where the house once set. Some one told me that it was straight out from the kitchen door. There were a lot of lilac bushes where the graves are located. The two graves are not very far from the house. This place has been known for years as the Old Minor Place. Minor Leatherman lived there for years.
