Some of them had writing, some of them didn't. Most were dated between 1865-1900. We mentioned it to the landowner (who didn't hunt) what we had found. He told us that when he bought the land he was told that it was an old KKK graveyard. Out of curiosity we called a historian in on it, and sure enough it was.
I killed one of my biggest bucks to date with the graveyard about 40yds behind me.
