This small cemetery has over one hundred interments and is still an active location, with most of the burials being members of the Bingham and Bays families. It was established sometime in the 1820s. It sits on the corner of a County Road 360 N and N. County Road 900 E and is surrounded by a chain link fence. It is well-maintained and had been mowed recently.

Our first stop is at the grave of Hiram Bingham.Born: 1810, Virginia
Died: 1863, Greene County, Indiana
He was the son of Frederick Bingham (1792-1859) and Obedience Powell Farmer Bingham (1789-1860). They are both buried in Bingham Cemetery in Solsberry, Greene County, Indiana, though I didn't find a headstone for her.
He had a couple of siblings:
Eliza Ann Bingham Anderson (1821-1912) - buried in Ridgeport Community Church Cemetery, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana
Alfred Bingham (1829-1902) - buried in Ridgeport Community Church Cemetery, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana
He was married to Sarah H. Uland Bingham (1819-1892). She was born in Halifax County, Virginia, but died in Greene County, Indiana. She is listed on the headstone with Hiram, though her birth and death dates are not carved in.
She was the daughter of Jonas Uland (1791-1835) and Elizabeth S. Bingham Uland Buffalo (1796-1846). They were buried on August 16, 1813 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. His burial site is unknown though he is thought to have been buried in Tennessee, somewhere in the Blue Ridge Mountains. He was on the way to Greene County, Indiana with his family and died somewhere near the Poplar Camp. This left Elizabeth and their children to make the trip alone. She is said to be buried in Old Ridgeport Cemetery, Ridgeport, Greene County, Indiana.
