There are obituaries and other records, such as family bible records, that indicate there was an "OLD Fairview Cemetery", definitely distinguished in writings from the current one, that was said to be between 1/4 and 1/2 mile N-NW of the location of the current Fairview Cemetery. It was said to be near a spring and an old homestead and was in use prior to the 1870's. That area was cleared for pasture land many years ago, and there appears now to be no visible evidence of the existence or exact prior location of the "OLD Fairview Cemetery".
