To get to this cemetery take #177 South from Hamlet, NC., Richmond
County, travel about 2.5 miles till you come to a caution light. Turn
left onto hwy #1966 Airport Rd. Once on Airport Rd. travel approximatly
3 miles. The church will be on your right and the cemetery in the rear
of the church. 

I would like to submit the Nebo Wesleyan Church Cemetery. This cemetery
is large and the grave stone rows are not in a straight line. It was
impossible to keep up with names by rows or sections. My daughter,
Sara, and I tried to write all the names in this cemetery, but we might
have missed one. Some of the stones are very old and unreadable. We
wrote the information off the old headstones a best as we could make
out.

that is divided into 2 sections. Cemetery Grave List follows:
