Floyd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To get to this cemetery from Ellenboro, NC turn north beside Bethel Baptist Church and go two to three miles. Go past the Mckinney Mill and Drury Dobbins Ch. crossroads and past the first house on right. In front of the next house that you come to, it will be on the left, turn right down drive in front of the house. For an old family cemetery off out in the country, this one is kept in extremely good shape. I done the inventory May 13, 1997 and I started in the northwest corner. There is two or three of the markers that I call unreadable that would probably be very readable with some kind of enhancement. I didn’t have anything with me but chalk and I didn’t have anything to clean it off with so therefore I did not mess up the stones.
