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.

This is the cemetery for the Second Creek AME Zion church before it was moved to Gheen road in the early 1930s. There are only hand full of graves that actually have engraved headstones, but there are dozens of obvious graves marked with rocks at the end of sunken spots in the ground. This was an African American church that began shortly after or possibly before emancipation so purchased headstones were financially out of reach for the majority of those buried in this cemetery.
