Note from Craig: This small Lockett burial plot contains only the graves of these two people, although there are a few other field stones nearby which might have been markers at one time for persons unknown. It is located on a hilltop about 1000 feet south of Preacher Robertson Road at the point where the road turns from east-west to mainly a north-south direction. It's about 1/2 mile east of Belote's Cemetery.

Ginsey headstone inscription: "Sacred to the memory of GINSEY LOCKETT Was born July 4th 1773 and departed this life June the 19th 1861"

Winifred's headstone inscription: "Sacred to the memory of WINEFRED LOCKETT was born August 31st 1815 and departed this life March 27th 1852"

Ginsey and Winifred also have footstones which are scaled-down versions of the headstone.
