Prospect Baptist Cemetery, Cleveland County, North Carolina PROSPECT BAPTIST CEMETERY Cleveland County, NC By W. D. Floyd This cemetery is located in the extreme southwest corner of Cleveland County, NC. The easiest way to find it is to go south from Forest City, NC on US221A, until you cross the Broad River and then take the next road to the left which will be Ridge Road. You go a mile or so on this road until the first road to the right. This is Prospect Church Road. The church is on the right an the cemetery is on the right a thousand feet or so past the church. There are a few unknown and unmarked graves in this cemetery. It is in pretty good shape. I did the inventory May 23, 1997.
