Lucas Cemetery [1]

Dr. Charles DeForest Lucas bought the property in 1935. Lucas came from Virginia and bought the property on Campbell Creek to build a gristmill to support his family. At this point in the creek, there is a natural falls, which had previously been the site of a sawmill, which was abandoned in the 1860s. This cemetery may have also been known as Buffalo.
