Donnell Farm
Cemetery aka Greenhill Cemetery
[Also seen on some death certificates
as "Donald (Donnell) Farm"]
(19708 US Hwy. 264, Swan Quarter, Hyde Co., NC)
This cemetery was surveyed March 2012 by Maldine Whitaker Wallace and her niece Beverly Merrick Mann. This, by no means, is a complete listing since this is a very large cemetery but if you have photos and more information concerning those buried here please let me know so I can include that information on this page. Click on underlined names to see a photo of the tombstone. Information within brackets was taken from birth or death certificates, obituaries, social security cards or other records. Overview photograph made in 2015 is contributed by Margie Brooks.
