 Marker : 
 In 1877 Louis H. Caster (1826 - 1908) deeded one acre for a community graveyard, church, and schoolhouse. His son-in-law   Lewis Dowd gave further acreage in 1888. Once a center of social life for the pioneer families of Shady Grove, the church and   school have been relocated. The cemetery remains in use. Oldest of the 450 marked graves is dated 1878. Veterans of the   Civil War, World Wars I and II, and the Korean War rest here. A cemetery association, formed in 1962, maintains the site.   Additional land was given in 1971 by the W. Q. Seale family and by Gifford Hill & Co., Inc.
