Miller Pine Thicket Cemetery
Snead, Blount County, Alabama, USA
A military marker and a family memorial along with a few scattered unreadable sandstones is all that is left of this cemetery. This cemetery has been documented entirely and all graves have been photographed.
Grave dowsing done in fall of 2012 showed 200+ graves completely unmarked. All the trees in a large radius are very small in diameter suggesting the same conclusion that this area was open such as a cemetery. Bldg foundations were also located by professional dowsing experts suggesting a church may have been on this property as well.
Tales from elders say that there is a young black girl who is buried here as well. She was burning some leaves and caught herself on fire and burned to death before anyone could help her.
******Update October 2016. *******
The woods surrounding this cemetery have all been cut down and cleared for farming however the cemetery was left intact and still sectioned off.
