Old Miles Cemetery

Located on Racecourse Road this cemetery was the second to be used in Miles as the original one at Dogwood Crossing was subject to flooding.  This cemetery was also abandoned after the ground was found to be too rocky.  We photographed this cemetery in June 2008 and this transcription represents all visible and legible headstones at that time.  To see a picture of a headstone simply click on the surname of interest.  For a higher resolution photo or an overall picture of a grave just send us an email.  (ktish64@gmail.com)
