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.

Soon after the formation of Aiken Co in 1872, property was obtained by the county to provide a county home or poorhouse for the "unfortunate and needy people". Two cemeteries were connected with the home as black and white were buried separately. The white cemetery has been located and the search continues for the black cemetery.

So far only one grave in cemetery has a marker with an inscription (Mary Wheeler). Other graves marked with bricks, field stones and metal. Information was obtained from SC Death Certificates.

If you plan to visit and come in from the Pre Release Center side, you really need to let the personnel inside the Center know what you are doing.
