What became of the Olive Cemetery?
I think it is lost to time. I have an ancestor listed in 1823 as buried in Olive. But even the US Geographic Names Information System has no listing for the Olive Cemetery today. It may be a part of one the three churches with Olive in their names. I would check those to see if they have an adjacent cemetery on the property that goes back to the early 1800s.

Lee, Don't know if my reply came thru to you, via iPhone. I know of none with that name, but often, especially if old, that name has morphed into a newer one. Where is it? Can I talk to the person who queried? [all this assuming that it's in Escambia Co??] P.S. An interred surname might help us find it, also. Evan ----- Original Message ----- From: "L. L.
