                 OLD COUNTY LINE CHURCH CEMETERY  

Turn south in Rayle onto Philomath Road. Go about six miles to
just past County Line Church. Turn right at the Upright granite
marker that says; "Entrance to Old County Line Church : Organized
in 1797; Grave of Rev. Sanders Walker." The old cemetery is about
two tenths of a mile down this road.

=================================================================
This old cemetery is kept cleaned by members of County Line
Church. There are six marked graves and at least nine graves
marked with field stones . Several graves seem to be children
graves. There are several large pine trees in the graveyard and
it is completely surrounded by woods.

=================================================================

(a) The Old County Line Church Sight  is about 75 yards from the
cemetery. In it we find a stone pillow about 3 feet squar and
about 2 1/2 feet high with a granite marker in it that says;  
 "Site of Old County Line Church, Organized in 1797, moved in
1921.
=================================================================

(b) To the left of this marker is a old Stone with oval top and
very hard to read inscription that says; Memorial; Here lies the
body of Rev. Sanders Walker, born the 17 March, 1740, died the 28
of November 1805. The 65 year of his age, the 38 year in the
ministry.
=================================================================

(c) At the other end of the grave is a military marker; "Sanders
Walker, Chaplain, Ga. Troops, Rev. war. 1805."
================================================================

To the right of the church marker is an upright stone of marble:
