> I have several relatives buried in church cemetaries in Duplin County.
What are the usual requirements to be buried these places? Do the churches
generally keep records of the people buried there? What information could I
possibly gather from these sources? I'll list my relatives and the churches
they are buried near below:
>
> Rooty Branch Free Will Baptist Church - Beautancus Rd. near Summerlins
Crossroads
>
> Giles Albert Rogers
> Wife: Nancy Herring (Rogers)
> Children: Yancey Rogers
> Margaret Rogers
>
> Snow Hill Free Will Baptist Church - somewhere near the previous church
>
> Isaac Thomas Bishop, Sr.
> Wife: Martha Jane Kennedy
> Children: Isaac T. Bishop, Jr.
> Wife: Louella W. Bishop
> Children: Aaron Glen Bishop
> Robert H. Bishop
>
> If anyone may have any research on any of these individuals, or know
anything about what records these churches may keep, please let me know. I
am particularly interested in information on Giles Rogers. I'll compile all
that I know about him and post it to this mailing list when I get a chance.
Thanks in advance!
