This cemetery contains the remains of at least 15 Confederate and Union military veterans. Also buried here is Martin F. Bruce, a partner in the Bagdad shipbuilding firm of Ollinger and Bruce which, during the Civil War, was contracted to build a 110-foot gunboat for the Confederate States Navy. The vessel never saw service, as it was scuttled during the Confederate evacuation from Bagdad in March 1862 to prevent it from falling into Union hands.
