Carson's Creek Baptist Church Cemetery is located within the gated community
of Connestee Falls. The gate is closed to non-residents but the East Fork gate is open on
Sundays for church members. The small white church is in a beautiful setting beside a lake.
The cemetery faces northeast and is on the northeast side of the church right on the road
that passes by the church.
The cemetery is very well kept. Apparently, funeral home markers have been added to
existing graves where there was no information or the information was being/had been lost.
There are 93+ graves. The earliest death date found is 1903. This survey was completed
November 26, 1998, by Philip Underwood-Sheppard.

(At the foot of Dolphus A. West appeared to be an old upright stone that might have
been the headstone at another grave. I could not tell by the lie of the ground. Therefore, I
am not including it in the survey)
