WALL CEMETERY - LIBERTY HILL COMMUNITY

Off FM 227 W. of Bobbitt Cemetery and bridge over San Pedro Creek - County road to Franklin Top Church, formerly Pine Top. Cemetery is in woods on private property not accessible to public.

This cemetery was used before Post Oak Cemetery at Augusta.  We find evidence of 20 to 30 graves - believe there was more.

Known to be interred here were members of the Anderson, Overshown, Pearson, and Williams families; possibly Edens, Singletary, and other families buried relatives here. Most graves are marked by rocks - a few have names. Some think black and white persons buried here.  Rev. C. W. Overshown and the Moores to do more research.

Surveyed April, 1985, by Hazel and Howard Moore, Historical Commission members, and Clemmie McDonald, all of Liberty Hill. Mrs. Hattie Overshown McDonald assisted with identification and history. Written by Hazel Moore.
