Gibson
George County, Mississippi
Here you will turn left onto
by a chain link fence and was in very
good condition. There were several unmarked graves in the cemetery
which was
established in 1877. There is a large
Magnolia tree in the center of the
cemetery. I was told by Mrs. Judy Goff that the story is that there was
a Mr.
Dave Gibson buried there and then the Magnolia tree
planted at the head of the
grave. No marker was ever placed there, but Mrs. Goff stated that they
were
going to place a marker there in memory of Mr. Gibson.
The cemetery is owned and maintained by
family members of those buried there. There was one Spanish American
War
Veteran,(John Nyman), in this cemetery.
The cemetery was walked by Jimmy
Trussell on the 10th of December, 2007 and
information was taken
from all legible temporary grave markers and headstone inscriptions.
