Latitude N 34 30.497 x Longitude W 82 36.063 CEMETERY HISTORY: ------------------------ I was raised in the Lebanon Community near the town of Pendleton of Anderson County, SC. On a small rise across from the old John P Major later Nimrod T Smith home, now gone, was a large two story old southern style home with a wrap around porch. It was called the Hammond place. I was told at some time in my life that the Hammond's built the old home. There was a barn to the rear of the home with numerous out buildings. Across the road was another barn and pasture and to the left of the barn was a blacksmith shop. All of this is gone today. Today the pasture is a large grove of cedar trees. There were numerous oaks in the yard of the old home and to the left facing the home site were numerous old pecan trees. Today only one oak and about 3 pecan trees remain. The home burned in the 1970s and there is a nursery there now. A Byron Welborn owned the home site before it was sold by his daughters. One of his daughters still lives at the Byron Welborn home place on the Liberty-Anderson Highway about a mile north toward Liberty from the old Lebanon Baptist Church. I don't know if any Hammond's are buried there. Keyes Gentry, lives on Gentry Rd., is the caretaker of the Lebanon Baptist Church Plat Book. He can probably tell you if there is a Hammond buried there or look up Lebanon Baptist Church in one of the Anderson County Cemetery Books.
