Boyd Cemetery
Maiden, N.C.

Directions: From the stoplight at the intersection of Hwy. 321-business and
Main Street, in Maiden, take a right.Go to the next stoplight, take a left.
Go 2 blocks, take a left in the curve. At the stopsign, the cemetery is across the road.

The Boyd Cemetery was always a mysterious place to us when we were kids. A lot of us thought of it as the "Pet Cemetery".
Needless to say, it is not, although, it is the final resting place of one faithful, family friend. I started the survey at the left, front corner of the cemetery, going from left to right on each row.
Some of the tombstones are badly eroded, making it impossible to read. Additional information that I have found, I marked with an *. This information is not on the tombstone.
It is information that I have found while doing my research. Every effort has been made to list this information correctly.If I have made any mistakes, I apologize.
