Those records were abstracted by the Southwest Georgia Genealogical Society about 30 years ago and under copyright. It would be a major project to survey these cemeteries again. Though I can not survey these cemeteries, I can help by listing below those whom I know to be buried in those cemeteries from obituaries or small personal abstractions. If you know of persons buried there and would like to help, send me an email to <http://www.genrecords.net/emailregistry/vols/00010.html#0002467> The entries below which come from obituaries can be found on the GaGenWeb Archives, if not listed under Dougherty Co. then try using the search engines. *Wallace Plot Wallace, Mercer T/5 b.May 22, 1921 d.

Mom says she thinks that there is also one of Papa Drake's family there too, but she does not know who. There are several graves that belonged to the family. They are unmarked, and the metal grave markers have long since been gone. They are at the foot of an above ground mauseleum (sp?) /tomb, and the plots are bricked around the family's plot about 2-3 ft high. Drake, George D.
