Hi Joan - It is the Hills Baptist Church Cemetery 1 mile east of Pickard.? (The church has
a Kirklin address/phone number but is 1 mile from Tipton/Hamilton County lines.)? I
don't know if there is another name but it is right next to the church.
Thanks - Brenda

Brenda: What is the name of the cemetery you are talking about. I know
about
all the cemeteries in Tipton County.

Hi Brenda,
There should be something in the Recorders office on the Church when it
was sold to the current congregation. They may help you track the deed
through
the property number. You will have to do the work after they show you.
Someone owns the property. Not that will help you find funds.
That is a task we all have to find for our projects.
We have a file linked to doing research off the main INPCRP page.
I hope it helps.
