I have a list that was in the Tucker's History that I am working on getting
on the site.
It lists who was buried there,and mentions who were moved to Fountain Park,
but Tucker only listed people of a certain age, he didn't include any
children in his lists. All the information on the cemeteries from Tucker's
History is that way, no children were listed. So keep that in mind when
reading the lists.

Are there records of burials that "used" to be in there?
I'd be interested in knowing who was there and who was moved.

Ok I talked to a few people today who have lived in Randolph County,
about
Heaston cemetery and was told there are no more stones there.
That the ground is owned by the Armory.
You can see where the cemetery used to be, and the little creek that
runs through
the piece of ground. I was told the land flooded often, and
families were complaining about the water. They moved several of the bodies
to Fountain Park and several were left behind. The ground was stirred
around a bit, and stones removed, and some of the families were told no
remains were to be found. From what I have read and what I have been told,
it looks like several people were upset about the conditions of the flooding
land, and then they were not happy with what was done about it either.
Anyone else hear any stories about this cemetery??
