About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This old family cemetery is located in the extreme northwest section of Johnson County. Go 8 1/2 miles west from Wrightsville city limits on Highway 57 and turn left at the paved crossroads marked Ivey's Chapel. Travel 2.1 miles and turn right onto field road which is located directly in front of the old John B. Wright home place. Continue on field road .4 mile and the cemetery can easily be seen to the right.

This plot was deeded as a cemetery by John B. Wright on November 12, 1845, when his son John was buried. This cemetery is divided into two sections: the John B. Wright section and the slave section. Both are enclosed with decorative iron fences.

Some of the information on these burials was given by Ethel Wright and Lennie Carey Wright.

There are many, many more unmarked graves in this section.
