To reach this cemetery from Lexington, drive south on Raleigh Road. The cemetery is just before Raleigh Road intersects with Hwy 8. The cemetery is on the west or right side of the road, between Railroad and Connor Streets.

This cemetery is owned and maintained by the city of Lexington, under a designated cemetery board.

It is a Negro cemetery, with no burials made since about 1981, judging from the existing tombstones and markers.

I walked and read this cemetery in July of 2006, using my digital camera. This includes all existing and legible headstones and markers to that date.

cemetery records

A free online library of cemetery records from thousands of cemeteries across the world, for historical and genealogy research.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
