Hunt Cemetery

est. c. 1865
Submitted by Robin Layton
 
Directions:  From Cartersville take Hwy 113 south. Where the road splits, bear left towards the Cartersville - Bartow Regional Airport. This is Hwy 61 south or the Dallas Hwy. This same stretch of hwy from Dallas is called Cartersville Hwy if you are in Paulding Co. After you cross Bartow-Paulding Co line go 2.3 miles. Take Road # 89 (county Rd.) also called Ferguson Place, on your right You will see the cemetery from Hwy 61 off a little distance---not on Hwy 61 but on this county road. It will be before you get to Dabbs Bridge that turns left of this Hwy 61. Go slow, there isn’t a cemetery marker on Hwy 61. There is a mile marker (22) on the left. The cemetery is on a small rise and an American flag is very noticeable from Highway 61 so its not too hard to see.

FROM DALLAS, take Highway 61, also known as the Cartersville highway.

 
Notes:   Underneath the flagpole there is a piece of marble with an inscription: "Hunt Cemetery est. c-1865. Land donated by Hunt & Ferguson Families."

The stone at the head of the grave is referred to as headstone, while the one at the foot is referred to as footstone to keep the information separate. Partial inscriptions, and any legible information, if found, is also included. Information contained on any unusual tombstones or if unusual shapes are noted is included. If a blank footstone available or if there isn’t one, this information is noted after the inscription on the tombstone. Since many stones have deteriorated I hope that this information will help identify ancestors’ graves after deterioration has rendered the inscriptions illegible, as will surely happen with time, weather, and age. I proceeded in rows beginning at the tombstone closest to the ntersection of Ferguson Place and Highway 61. Since the cemetery is not a perfect square rows are not even so keep in mind that the tombstones are noted in the closest approximation to rows.
