"Family tradition is that this cemetery was the side yard of the Stuart family and that James Hinton Stuart is buried very close to his father, Joseph Kirk Stuart. I do not see a marker for Joseph though." - Patricia Stuart Sistare
Joseph Kirk Stuart's probate will shows that Helen Frances (Stuart) Holloway and Maranda (Stuart) Betts were descendants and siblings of James Hinton Stuart. Helen and Maranda are interred at Harnett Chapel Cemetery a few miles away.

Joseph's widow, Barbara Stuart, is shown on 1900 census of Wake County living with son, William F. Stuart. Indeed her land in Harnett County was sold. Her son James retained his portion of land in Harnett and appears in 1910 census of Harnett County, Hector's Creek Township. It is this piece of land where the cemetery is located.
