    1. Gresham Cemeteries
    2. Dear family and friends, On my last trip to Duplin Co. before the hurricane I visited two cemeteries in Beulaville, one on Turkey Branch Road and the other located on property owned by Junior Lanier and Susie Gresham Lanier. I hope this will help some of you. I plan to make another trip to the cemetery where George Washington Gresham and Linda Annie O'Daniel are buried, along with James Thomas Gresham and Sadie Belle Miller. Will post the information afterwards. The following information is taken from the two Gresham Cemeteries in Beulaville.
