About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The church was formerly known as Wheeleys Meeting House and was organized in 1791. The cemetery and church sits at a small rural cross roads that is known to most locals as Wheelers. The church was immortalized in photographs by acclaimed Depression era photographer Dorothea Lange in July 1939 as part of the Farm Service Administration. The west northwestern part of the cemetery is the oldest part and contains many unmarked graves. Wheelers convenes services only on the second Sunday of each month. Traditionally Primitive Baptist only meet once a month.
