Messer Cemetery at

Shady Grove

Beantown Rd.
Hemphill Section
Haywood County, NC

. To reach this cemetery, take Hwy. 276 down Jonathan's Creek toward I-40 and Tennessee. Take Joe Carver Road on the left and follow it to Beantown Road on the left. Take Beantown Rd. to the NC Baptist Association's Hispanic Mission. Turn right into the Mission driveway and continue to stay right to the top of the hill. This road is very steep and rough. The Messer Cemetery will be on your left surrounded by a woven wire fence. The Messer Cemetery was originally part of the Allison Cemetery at Shady Grove, but since it has been fenced separate from the original cemetery, I am recording it as a separate cemetery. This cemetery is well cared for and still in use. This cemetery contains 5 graves. Creed Messer June 17, 1911 June 20, 1882 Annie Mae Messer September 17, 1913 November 11, 1983 Berry Messer June 24, 1905 December 16, 1984 Sybil Brown Messer January 10, 1899 October 31, 1977 John Henry Messer November 12, 1870 September 10, 1958
