On Find A Grave.com they show 4 New Hope Cemeteries in and around Marion Co. How many are there?? I'm looking for location of New Hope Cemetery near Hamilton where Christopher Colombus Terry and his wife Josephine Daniels Terry are buried. Also Manscill family. When we visited several years ago (2001), there was a little white church on the grounds. Can someone help me here? Thanks! Here's GPS Coordinates from the Find A Grave site. I think the first three may be same cemetery, but I don't know!! GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 34.2278, Longitude: -87.9647 Map shows County Road 73, County Highway 129 Accessible from Highway 20 or 187. Burials: Allen Bishop, Clodie Colburn, etc GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 34.1911, Longitude: -87.6706 Map shows to be near intersection of CR 129 and Highway 19. No burials listed. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 33.9806, Longitude: -87.82 Map shows it to be on New Hope Cemetery Road. Between Highway 160 and 61. Burials: J.M. Dickinson, Eva Emerson, Manerva Lewis, etc. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 34.0019, Longitude: -87.8783 - Map shows Highway 44 and Scufflegrit Road. No burials listed.

I have looked at these coordinates on Google Earth. The first two look like they may have a structure on the grounds that could be a church. Both structures are pretty good size. The first cemetery looks to have a couple of ponds on it and the second one does not. The Third on is very near New Hope but Google Earth does not show a structure on or near the grounds.
