Pitts-Dill Cemetery - NE on Lascassas Pike (Hwy 96E), after road (left) to Oakland High School, cemetery
is on right (E) side of road 1/10 mile N of Bushnell Creek Bridge on Hwy 96 about 250 feet from road in a grove of pine trees.
40 or more unmarked graves covered by ivy ground cover.
This was originally the property of Joseph and Mary Polly Wright
Dill who build the cabin circa 1815. They are buried here on a little rise. Their graves were once marked by a log enclosure
which has become part of the growth and soil accumulation on their graves. There is a small stone which appears to be the
top of an old marker over one of the graves. There are probably other Dill family members buried here. Only two markers have
survived.
