CHANDLER CEMETERY

New Additions of older burials, from list provided by Lee-Sykes Funeral Home in May 2006.

 

This African American cemetery is located approximately 1.5 miles south of Plum Nellie Road along a logging road just south of the Plum Nellie plantation house.  The cemetery is located on land originally owned by the Chandler family.  The cemetery may have been partially destroyed when the electric lines were laid along this route.
