Spring Creek Baptist Church Cemetery Inscriptions (Partial) Seminole Co, GA Spring Creek Baptist Church Cemetery Transcribed: 06 Oct 1998 By: Denise Kirkland Smiley Spring Creek Baptist Church Cemetery is located on Spring Creek Highway in Seminole Co., Georgia. When you enter this cemetery the very first thing that catchs your eye is the black and gray marble headstones for Ned Alday and his family. There were brutally murdered May 14, 1973 in Seminole Co. Twenty-five years later, their killers still sit on Georgia's death row. Everytime I see these headstones I still have shivers run down my spine. This is only a partial transcription of this cemetery. I was not able to finish it. If you are willing and able to finish this transciption please email me for the particulars of where I left off. When you face the cemetery standing behind the headstone of a Mr. Earl Milton Johnson, everything to the right has been transcribed. To the left I was able to transcribe those headstones that are my direct lines. There are 20 Unknown graves that were moved from Trawick Cemetery on 08 Jan 1977. Laverene B.
