Clarendon County, South Carolina

                                                     White Family Cemetery

     The White Family Cemetery is located on the old White family home place, in 
the Bloomville section of Clarendon County. There are thirteen grave stones 
marking fifteen graves. There were twelve to fifteen metal stobs or posts which 
may have been marking others graves with no markers.

     The cemetery may be found by traveling from Sumter on Route 521 South. Turn 
right onto Route 48. (Oak Grove Methodist Church and Cemetery is on Route 48.) 
Continue on past Oak Grove for 3 or 4 miles. Be careful not to blink or downtown 
Bloomville will be a blur. A few miles past Bloomville a Pentecostal Church will 
be passed with the new church on the left hand side of the road and the old 
church on the right hand side. The next  buildings that can be seen along the 
road are mobile homes. The land mark to look for is a mobile home and a house on 
the right. Turn down the dirt road there. Go on down this road until it ends. 
There will be a fork in the road,  but either fork leads to the cemetery. Directions to the cemetery  had been given to Dee and Cindy by their cousin, Pearlie Ridgeway Ridgeway of  Bloomville, Clarendon County, South Carolina.
    
     Cousins, Dee Lowder Schmidt and Cynthia Ridgeway Parker of Sumter surveyed this cemetery on 16 August 1996. The grass had been recently been mowed by a tractor.  It was obvious that someone keeps the cemetery up. This cemetery listing does not appear in the book, Old Sumter District Cemeteries, Clarendon County. It was missed when the Sumter County Genealogical Society did its survey.
