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.

Originally called "Coker Cemetery" or "Coker's Cemetery," the land was purchased and the cemetery created and named as decreed in the will of Abner Coker in October 1888. Associated with the Whatcoat Methodist Church, eventually the cemetery became known as "Whatcoat Cemetery," but there were a few years in between when the cemetery was referred to as "Lakeview Cemetery" as can be seen in various obituaries dated ca. 1930 – 1948.
