Gilboa Methodist Cemetery - Burke County, NC - Cemeteries Submitted to the USGenWeb Archives by W. D. Floyd wdfloyd@rfci.net GILBOA METHODIST CEMETERY Burke County, NC By W. D. Floyd This cemetery can be reached by traveling about two miles south of I-40 on Highway US 64 toward Rutherfordton, NC. As you pass the Salem Road on the left and the Quick-Mart on the right if you will look really close you will see an old sign on the west side of the road pointing the way to the cemetery down a steep driveway. If you come to the Hopewell Baptist sign you have gone too far. The drive is back on the other side of the house that you just passed. This is probably the oldest Methodist cemetery in Burke County. It was formed in about 1793 I think. I was there February 2, 1998 and I started the audit in the northeast corner of the cemetery. There are quite a few unmarked graves and many marked with fieldstones.
