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.

Willow Tree is one of the oldest African American churches in Burke County, being established in 1872. A tract of land was deeded over by Peter Carter and his wife Fannie for the church. It is likely that some of the early tomkbstones were made by Jim Brooks.
