Return to Hyde County

St. George's Episcopal Church Cemetery
(Hwy. 264; Lake Landing Twp.)

Unless otherwise noted, all photos were taken in June 2015 by Candy Roth who stated that there were several unreadable stones due to deterioration or overgrowth.  In Memory Of...An Index to Hyde County Cemeteries by Martha Rebecca Swindell & R.S. Spencer, Jr. (© 1973) was used as a reference as well as birth certificates, death certificates, obituaries and census records. These records will be seen in brackets.  The names below with red asterisks beside them indicate an unmarked grave but other records indicate they were buried in this cemetery so they are included here.  Please visit this page for a look at the history of this church and some fabulous photos of the interior taken by Jeannette Marie Zimmerman.
