County Home Cemetery

According to news
articles, between
50-100 unknown people were buried in what was the County Home cemetery.
The cemetery land was later sold and the bodies reinterred in 3 mass
graves near Legion Stadium in Whiteville. After researching death
certificates in Columbus County, I have personally put together a small
list of those known to have been buried in the cemetery. If you know of
any others that were buried in County Home cemetery, email me with the
information so that I
may add them to this list.
