RUSH-WATKINS CEMETERY
Surveyed by Woodford Sherrill and Jack Ingram

This African American Cemetery is located near Mt. Zion Church of Christ. There are three cemeteries near that church. 
Heading north east on Ledbetter Rd., Rush Cemetery is on the left before the Church. Love Family Cemetery is on the left 
past the church. The church also has a cemetery behind and north-east of the building.  All three cemeteries are within 
site of each other. Sandra Elliott  5-21-2012   Contact: Myrtle Bridges
