Williamson Petty (1820-61), Sulphur River ferryman, donated land for this cemetery from a claim which he settled in 1850. Col. John C.

Cusseta and nearby Cusseta Mountains

I have been dreaming of and loving this area in northern Cass County, approximately three miles south of State Highway 77 on the Cusseta to Linden county road, since I was a very small girl. I was born and grew up in the Cornett area and driving along the road to Hughes Springs over the high hills, we/I would look into the beauty of the Cusseta Mountains with my father telling the family the mountains were named by his grandfather John Robin Heard.
