Wake County, NC - White Oak Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery ----¤¤¤---- 5/7/2004 White Oak Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery 1725 White Oak Church Rd., Green Level, White Oak Twp., Wake Co., NC Dir: From the intersection of Hwy. 55 and Green Level RD. (SR 1605), (betw. Apex & Durham), go west 3 miles on Green Level Rd. to the intersection of Green Level Rd. and White Oak Church Rd., which only runs north. Turn north on White Oak Church Rd. and go 2/10 mi. to the cemetery on the east side of the road. The church is 1/10 mi. beyond at 1621 White Oak Church Rd. N. 35°46'38" W 78°55'07" I recorded all the visible and readable headstones and markers. Shirley Olson, glolson@attglobal.net The cemetery is located in one of the prettiest areas of the county, on 1.65 acres that rises gently from the road. It is surrounded by woodland which is encroaching on some of the graves in the back of the cemetery. The grass is sparse and that has allowed erosion to occur. About 33 grave stones in the front of the cemetery do not have bases and have been partially covered by mud and debris and will be completely covered if not restored. In another area headstones have sunk as much as a foot and may evenyually disappear. The graves are not laid out in any order and there are a great many unmarked graves or graves marked only with funeral home markers. On some graves there are rusted, partially readable funeral home markers, but many markers are completely unreadable. The general appearance is neat with many decorative bouquets, and numerous attractive headstones, but the cemetery needs serious attention. The cemetery is owned by the church and has space for more burials. There is a driveway and room to park but no parking lot.
