Scott Cemetery, Waynesville, Brantley County, Georgia.



This cemetery is located on private property.  You will have to 
obtain permission from the hunting club that leases it to go see 
this cemetery.  It is located about 3.5mi. south on Post Road in 
Waynesville.  At the end of Post Road will be a gate, you will have 
to get out and walk from this point, if you have permission.  Take 
the first road on your right and start walking.  The cemetery will 
be on the right after you pass the hunting club station.  It is 
marked with pink flagging.  I couldn't measure the distance, but 
it takes about 5min. to get to it.

There are only three graves in this "cemetery." They are all in 
a row. Two of them are inside a cast iron fence.  As of yet no one 
knows who these people are or why they are buried where they are 
at.  I have gone to this cemetery and taken pictures of the stones 
and transcribed them word for word as follows:

TO MY MOTHER         Beneath this stone     Here
MARY SCOTT           lies our father        lies our mother
who died             Alex C. Scott, Sr.     ELIZA J.
March 10, 1845       who died               wife of
Aged 52 years        Oct. 30th 1875         Alex C. SCOTT, Sr.
(footstone M.S.)     Aged 69yrs.            who died
                     (footstone A.C.S.)     Dec. 11th 1875
       Aged 66 yrs.
      (footstone)

**Thank you Huey Ham, President of the Brantley County Historical 
Society for telling me about this cemetery and it's location.
