  The Banister Cemetery is located on land now owned by Jesse Whitfield.
 John Banister came to Foard County in 1888 and gave five acres of land for the Cemetery. In 1998, Helen Whitfield, Jo, and Faye made a written and photo record of the graves.The only history and records found of this Cemetery were in this record, obituaries from the Foard County news, and the book THEY LOVED THE LAND.
