by: Christi Watkins
Location: Off of Hwy 72 between Clinton and Whitmire.
This cemetery was in the middle of a field, hidden away in the trees and forgotten by time.
Though overgrown with tall weeds, it still held a peaceful feeling, like coming home after a long journey.

These are all the stones that we presently have on our list. We were told that some slaves are buried here but we have no record of their names. There are many unmarked graves still hiding after 180 years and with them the untold stories of generations.
almost, as a silent greeting from the past, welcoming us inside.
I am a descendant of the McCoy family listed above. Many of those buried here are connected to our line in one way or another. If you have information about anyone in this cemetery, or know of someone buried here that is not listed above, please let me know. I would like to add some personal information to each one of these names. This was a special place and I will never forget the feeling of finally finding it and my McCoy family of South Carolina.
