As one of the oldest cemeteries in Hamilton Co. it was abandoned and then vandalized. Of the 70+ burials, only 27 stones remain. The first known burial in 1875, the last in 1914. Transcriptions and photos of all remaining stones has been gathered and one very old plat has been copied. No known records of the church exist. Will do look-ups, share transcriptions & photos. We need information on burials and family for restoration efforts. Also looking for family willing to purchase grave markers for their relatives. Any assistance is appreciated! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I am currently writing a book about this church and cemetery and researching the families thereof. And will be happy to work with anyone interested in these efforts.....Michelle Thompson-Larson ==================================================================== ?, Lucy L.
