Thanks Terry. Sure does. The Mullinax cemetery in York is located East of Kings Creek and near Kings Mountain. The closest water course/ stream to the Mullinax Cemetery is today called the Garner Branch. It looks like Burrell's Branch became Mullinax Branch and then Garner Branch. Guess where Garner Branch begins or ends .... right behind Brown's Mountain inside Kings Mountain Park. Brown's Mountain (now a lookout station) was mentioned as the location of old John Dover who came back from wherever and set up his mill site way before 1800 ... from the Genealogy of the Dover family. -----Original Message----- From: Terry Jackson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, January 09, 2004 7:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Dover] References to Dover in South Carolina Archives and History Index Does this help? http://www.angelfire.com/sc/piedmonths/cemeteries.html MULLINAX FAMILY CEMETERY The following inscriptions were copied March 21, 1979, by W.C.
