Cedar Creek Baptist Churchyard

These Cemetery records  were originally transcribed and published in The Passing of the Pines: A History of Wilcox County Georgia Volumes I, II and III by authors, Mary Lou L. McDonald and Samuel Jordan Lawson III. These books are copyrighted and we have asked for and received permission to use them on this website. We appreciate their generosity in allowing us to use these records on this web site.

A complete inventory of the tombstone inscriptions in this churchyard was made by Harry Blue on 25 April 1981 and a follow-up was made 4 May 1982. It was my intent to show all of the genealogical information and not all of the lengthy inscriptions which appear on some of the markers. Therefore, in this listing you will find the complete name, including any reference to mother and father or other relative, and the birth and death dates in that order.

You will note that I have consistently used the abbreviation for the month of the year. In many instances the month was completely spelled out on the grave marker, however, in the interest of time and space I used the abbreviation.

There are about four hundred and sixty-four (464) marked graves in this cemetery. Some of these markers have no information whatever upon them. A pile of field stones mark the graves of some and certainly there are many graves which are no longer marked in any way. My cousin, Thomas Childs, and I were talking and we both remember a number of "heart pine" markers in the cemetery when we were children, but these markers no longer exist.

When more than one marker exists for the same individual, be it military or some other type, I have shown this information immediately below the original entry. When any special markings appear such as Masonic Emblems or Woodmen of the World Emblems, I have made a note of this; fact.

Cedar Creek Baptist Church is located in the northeastern part of Wilcox County, Georgia, at the intersection of U.S. Highway 129 and Georgia Highway 233. This is approximately 15 miles almost due south of Hawkinsville, Pulaski County, Georgia.

I have attempted to be completely accurate in this listing. Errors may have occurred. If so it was because of the difficulty in reading the weather worn inscriptions or simply a human error. If such exists, please forgive me.

The following is a compilation of the gravesites which have marker without inscriptions in the Cedar Creek Baptist Churchyard of Wilcox County, Georgia. There are approximately forty-nine (49) gravesites which can be located by broken markers, poured concrete slabs slabs which have no markings, a wrought iron fenced enclosure with no identifying marks, or piled fieldstones indicating a gravesite is present but has no discernable marks to identify whose grave it might be.

Each of these grave markers with no inscription has been indentified as being adjacent to another gravesite which does have identifying marks.

The grave nearest to these four is that of Thomas R., son of B.M. & F.H. Dennard, Apr. 30,1896-Dec. 11, 1912; Mrs. Martha Doster Sims, a lifelong resident of the community, identified these gravesites as those of Benjamin M.

14. A pile of field stones adjacent to the gravesite of Martha Carolyn Eckardt, Aug. 15, 1922-Oct. 19, 1978.

28. A raised concrete gravesite at the north end of the Walden gravesite has the identification part broken off along with portions of the grave marker.

29. Another raised concrete gravesite adjacent of the gravesite of M.L. Waldin, July 30, 1846-Aug. 28, 1854; this site does have the following "J.H. Walden, Builder" on the west side of the marker.

30. A walled enclosure approximately 3'/z feet high and fifteen feet square has no markings. The nearest gravesite to the north of this is Caroline Mitchell, daughter of Daniel & Jane McLeod, Mar. 16, 1825-Sept. 3, 1873. A lifelong resident, Mrs. Martha Doster Sims, states that this is the gravesite of Catherine Blue Dennard, first wife of James Hartwell Dennard. Due to the size of this gravesite I am going to suggest that it contains three of the Blue children: Catherine Blue Dennard, John Blue, Charles Blue, all of whom were children of John Blue & Mary McLeod Blue.
