Bose Lavender Cemetery

This is a African American cemetery.

This cemetery is located near the intersection of J. R. Sims road and Bellwood roads. If you go to that 
intersection and turn back around ago towards Irvington about 1000 feet look to the right you will notice a 
hill at the top of it about 300 feet from the pave road. You will find the cemetery there. There two or three 
unmarked burials there as well. One of the unmarked graves is believed to be Bose wife Mary which is to 
Bose immediate left facing his grave.
