Find A Grave lists 1762 interments, visually, I will agree with this count.

The earliest marker I located was that belonging to Anderson Nelson from 1936. However, a copy of Mr Nelson's Death Certificate shows his final day to be 1937. (visit link)

The bulk of headstones are dated from mid 1970 to late 1980's. There are recent burials up to this year.
