BROWNS CHAPEL CEMETERY

NOTE: See photos below that were submitted later.  See Photograph

This cemetery is located approximately 12 miles northwest of Branch. It is seldom used, but has been in use for many years. Many of the graves are marked with painted rocks or bear no markers at all. I believe this was once located on the property of John S. Brown.
