DC's were not required by the state until 1880 with full compliance by the 1900s. Took awhile for the clerks to regularly file them. Obits generally did not get published as a rule until much later than the dates you have. Baptist records are now in Atlanta and you may some luck writting to them and explaining the clergy connection you have. There may have been one main cemetery for Albion but it would be hard to say which one would have been used. www.fultonhistory.com is a link to a web site that is searchable and has many state newspapers.It is free, and you might want to spend sometime searching for the names that you have and see if you can flesh them out more details.
