When it was changed to Hendry is not known by me. The funeral homes still call it Whippoorwill. It has so many missing graves, many indentions and broken bricks and rocks are further proof. There are historical tombstones there you will not see any other place in Thomas County. Many there now are no longer legible. The over all condition is quite poor. Many broken tombstones, many leaning, ready to fall. Location: From Thomasville intersection of U.S. Hwy.19 & 319 take 19 N to 23844 US Hwy 19 N (across road from Stewart Lodges), just beyond this house, turn right onto Mockingbird Lane (dirt), At the intersection of Cemetery Road and Whippoorwill stay to your left on Cemetery Road. The cemetery is less than a mile on left side of the road. ADAMS, Minnie A 01-06-1872 10-12-1899 w/o Wm L.
