Austell Family Cemetery: SC150 @ Central-Limestone School: 1838-1873

Transcribed November 7, 1999

This cemetery is located in a small clearing on the east side of SC 150 
immediately North of the new Central-Limestone Elementary School.  It was 
well cared for and appears to be within the right-of-way of SC150 but may 
be on private property.  Our notes and comments are [bracketed].

We began at the SouthEast corner and worked North then to the 
SouthWest Corner and north again.  There were two marker bases on 
the edge of the woods with no stone attached - we're not certain whether 
these are graves or simply bases used in a previous application and replaced.
