About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This is the older and smaller of the two cemeteries around Meridian Baptist Church. It is due south of the church building. The remains of non-slaveholders, slaveholders & decendants of slaves are all buried in this cemetery. The other cemetery, on the west of the church building has only those of European descent.. One could use the church minutes & conveyance records to establish the ethnic prigins of them. No attempt is made here. Unmarked graves have been reported also. The cemetery is kept in good condition.

The south cemetery was the original cemetery and was used by blacks and whites alike. When the new cemetery was built the original south cemetery was given to the African Americans and whites started using the new cemetery.
