Little Creek Cemetery
T24, R15, S31
On creek behind the present Thornfield Cemetery, no access road

This abandoned plot is at the sire of the original Mt.  Lebanon  Baptist
Church on the banks of Little Creek just north of Thornfield.

The stream has eroded the plot to so a much smaller  size  than  it  was
originally. It is overgrown with no access. There have probably been  no
burials in this century. There are sixteen or eighteen fieldstones,  but
only two with inscriptions. The legible markers read:

HERNDON, Henry W., 6 Jun 1825-8 Apr 1878 and Martha C., daughter  of  S.
E. and S. PILAND, 15 Dec 1866-15 Dec 1868, "Gone to be an Angel"

This cemetery has been referred to as Mt. Lebanon Cemetery  and  Herndon
Cemetery.
