It is next to the East Lithonia Baptist Church. The Goddard part of the cemetery is within a small stone walled area. The area outside the wall is considered the East Lithonia Baptist Cemetery and is much newer. It has several very recent burials where the Goddard has few. It is reasonably well maintained except for some weeds and does have some broken stones. The transcription begins to the left if facing the cemetery and moving back down the rows. Asterisks indicate additional info at end of transcription. Hubert GODDARD b. Nov 22, 1913 d. Apr 4, 1958 George Marlin CHANCE b. Oct 6, 1948 d.
