Add PhotosThe most well-known graves are those of William Westley, "W.W." and his wife Anna Bond Fields. William Westley was an old Regular Baptist preacher, who was the first moderator of the Sardis Association when it split from Mates Creek in 1893 over the question of predestination. Their daughter Ellen Fields Pauley is also buried there, as well as their son Jeff, also a Regular Baptist preacher, and his wife Sidney, for whom the Sidney church was named. Both sons were preachers, and all three preached in the last service William Westley preached.
The cemetery is a peaceful scene, hard to get to, but a beautiful drive with views along the way of the lake created by the mining. Those familiar with the cemetery have interesting stories to tell of the people who have it as their final resting place. It is a wonderful example of the reverence the people of the area have for their heritage.
