I have a copy of a survey that was compiled by the Aiken-Barnwell Genealogical Society, Inc. of South Carolina. Address: P. O. Box 415, Aiken, SC. (AIKEN COUNTY CEMETERIES VOL. III) This cemetery (OLD LANGLEY CEMETERY) was inventoried by: Cyril Johnson & Wallis Byars, January 26, 1991. My husband and I have visited this cemetery and there was much undergrowth and large trees. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Byars also stated: "Township of Langley SC, Hwy. #421 - take Piney Heights Road, cemetery is 4/10 mile on right in dense undergrowth and large trees and is spread over a large area. We found very few grave squares that had been attended in several years. They also stated that they know that they don't have all of the graves listed and some even moved from base to other areas. There are several entrances from Piney Heights Rd. and they started at first and copied inscriptions in sections and tried to keep grave squares together." They have 7 1/2 pages of inscriptions - not in alphabetical order in the book....I would be glad search these pages for the person or persons you might be researching.

Thank you for the offer to search for my great grandmother but I know M. E. A. Puckett is buried there I visit each year at Christmas to put flowers on her grave. What I would like to do since I live within twenty miles is to help clean the cememtery on the weekends.

That would be a good project for the winter time. It would take many volunteers. Guess we need to approach county officials again.
