Nestled in the corner of James River Equipment's property along Old Concord Road, several isolated gravestones are all that remains of a graveyard that is over a century old.

She turned around to take a closer look and found a tiny cemetery marked off by the owners, with about five graves still standing.

That left the retired history teacher with more questions than answers, questions Moore-Stanfield said she took to Steven Young with James River Equipment.
