Huffstutler Cemetery
Locust Fork, Blount County, Alabama
Locust Fork, Alabama 35097
Township 13 South, Range 1 West, Section 30
Contributed by Barry Huffstutler, Jan 24, 2002 [barryh@citynet.net].
Total records = 4.
From Locust Fork take State Route 79 South to Center Spring Road and
turn Right. Go to Philadelphia Road and turn Left. Go half way up the
hill to the first road on the Left with a fence across it. You will have
to walk to the cemetery which is about 1/2 mile out in the woods.
This cemetery is very small and most folks don't even know of it. Its
location is hard to find and can't be seen from the main road. It has
no name that anyone can think of, so for namesake, I am calling it the
Huffstutler Cemetery because there are some Huffstutler's buried in
it.
Local folks say that this is the original cemetery for the Philadelphia
(Baptist) Church. The original church at the bottom of the hill burned
down and then was rebuilt and then destroyed by a tornado before it
was moved to the top of the hill at its present location.
I have digital pictures of the graves if anyone want one e-mail to
them.
Survey was finish in Jan. 2002. 15 unmarked graves.
