This old family cemetery is well tended and headstones have been mostly repaired or replaced. Fully fenced. Has a Texas Historical Cemetery marker. Cemetery steps off at 25 yards wide and 35 yards deep.

The cemetery was re-indexed and photographed by Larry and Travis Standlee in June 2011.

Charles Durham, a descendant of Joe Musser and Mary J. Buchanan Musser, had provided many tombstone photos from this cemetery which we have now updated to more current versions. Charles also reported that Buchanan Cemetery hosts a reunion each year in April at Randolph. (We do not have a current email address for Charles.)

Extensive vandalism was reported in 2003 with no stones remaining upright and many broken. We are pleased to see the cemetery restored to a respectful condition. The gate is now locked and access must be requested.
