There is a John W. Andrews buried at "The Rock Cemetery" In Upson: John W. Andrews, b. 12/16/1850, d. 11/2/1905 From the Upson County Cemetery Book: The Rock Cemetery originated sometime around 1900. The north side of the plot of land that was originally the Upson Campground, organized for this purpose a number of years after Sherman's raid through Georgia in 1865, was reserved for the cemetery later. The cemetery was first used in 1923. The cemetery is located eight miles east of Thomaston, Ga., on Highway 36 at The Rock, Georgia. It is adjacent to The Rock United Methodist Church.
