Moss Memorial Church Cemetery - Clay County, North Carolina - Cemeteries (Approx. 236 Names) Moss Memorial Church Cemetery, also known as Tusquittee Church, is located East of Hayesville in the Tusquittee Community on Tusquittee Road. The church was founded on June 20, 1958, meeting in the homes of members or in the outdoors. In September 1860, the church voted to build a church building next to the community cemetery. This being a public graveyard, there are a number of slaves buried there. During the time that the first church building was being built, the church received in its membership "Sarah and Eliza Henry", who were slaves. The early church records show that other slaves were accepted as members of the church. This survey was performed by Mrs. Dorothy Shepherd with numerous subsequent additions made from obituaries.
