I can tell you there is an old cemetery near the Smoak Bridge in Warwick, Ga north of the County Seat of Sylvester, Worth Co., Ga. Isabella is still a thriving community 3 miles north of Sylvester but before the almost forgotten town of Doles, Ga (Red Oak Church and cemetery area in Doles.) and before you get to Warwick in Worth County. If you continue past the flint river, the cemetery is on your left before you get to Crisp Academy School in Crisp Co. Ga. Isabella was the county seat of Worth County until the railroad was started. The farmers were afraid the trains would scare their livestock , so moved the train track 3 miles south. Sylvester sprang up there and later the county seat was moved as well. I grew up there!

There is a cemetery listing book for Worth county, Ga.
