Can anyone help us solve this mystery?

Lisa has been typing up several cemeteries from the WPA lists, and she just
sent me this one on Mars Hill Baptist Church. (Her other ones are 2 White
Family and 3 Mizell Cemeteries.)

Are there TWO Mars Hill Baptist Church Cemeteries....or should these lists
be combined?

Does anyone know if there are other graves in this cemetery that need to be
added?

Thanks for helping us solve this mystery....
