Help! I have been offline with a faulty modem for almost a month! Can someone tell me about this Quaker Cemetery and it's location???? I have ancestors who would be buried there, and believe it or not, I used to live in Newberry [before I got this far into my genealogy], and I sort of know my way around. Would love to stop and find it to take pictures on my way to my parents [I live in Myrtle Beach and they live in Easley.] Thanks so much for any help with this! Godspeed... Dolores M. Pringle - descendant of PARKINS, PETERSON, RICHARDSON, ROGERS and others in the Newberry and Edgefield Dists. ----- Original Message ----- From: <AltheaCromer@aol.com> To: <SCNEWBER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2001 6:29 PM Subject: Re: [SCNEWBERRY] Quaker Cemetery, Newberry, SC > Hi!

I AM THE NATION I was born July 4, 1776. The Declaration of Independence is my birth certificate. The bloodliness of the world runs in my veins, because I offered freedom to the oppressed. I am the nation! I am 250 million living souls & the ghosts of millions more who have lived, fought & died for me. I am Nathan Hale & Paul Revere. I stood at Lexington & fired the shot heard around the world. I am Washington, Jefferson & Patrick Henry. I am John Paul Jones, the Green Mountain Boys & Davy Crockett. I am Lee, Grant & Lincoln. I remember the Alamo, the Maine, Pearl Harbor. When freedom called, I answered & stayed until it was over, over there. I left my heroic dead in Flanders Fields, the rock of Corregidor, on the bleak slopes of Korea, in the steaming jungle of Vietnam & the desert sands of Kuwait. I am the Brooklyn Bridge, the wheat lands of Kansas, the granite hills of Vermont. I am the coal mines of the Virginias & Pennsylvania, the fertile lands of the West, the Golden Gate & Grand Canyon. I am Independence Hall, the Monitor, the Merrimack & the Challenger. I am big. I sprawl from the Atlantic to the Pacific... more than 3 million square miles of land throbbing with industry, more than 2 million farms. I am forest, field, mountain & desert. I am quiet villages; cities that never sleep. Look at me; see Ben Franklin walking down the streets of Philadelphia with his bread loaf under his arm; see Betsy Ross with her needle; see the lights of Christmas & hear the strains of "Auld Lang Syne" as the calendar turns. I am Babe Ruth & the World Series. I am 200,000 schools, colleges & more than 300,000 churches where my people worship God as they choose. I am a ballot dropped into a box, the roar of a crowd in a stadium, the voice of a choir in a cathedral. I am an editorial in a newspaper & a letter to Congress. I am John Glenn, Neil Armstrong & their fellow astronauts who whirl through space. I am Eli Whitney, Stephen Foster, Tom Edison, Albert Einstein & Billy Graham. I am Horace Greeley, Will Rodgers, the Wright brothers. I am George Washington Carver, Jonas Salk & Martin Luther King, Jr. I am Longfellow, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Walt Whitman & Thomas Paine. May I always possess the integrity, courage & strength to keep myself unshackled; to remain a citadel of freedom & a beacon of hope to the world. Yes, I am the nation. These are the things that I am. I was conceived in freedom. And, God willing, in freedom I shall spend the rest of my days.. ------------------------------------------ Have a safe and Happy 4th of July :-) Nancy E Parr---Hostess

Thank you Nancy have a great 4th and I enjoy your list. Winona ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today! For your FREE software, visit: http://dl.www.juno.com/get/tagj.

Hello Judy, I have no relatives in the Quaker Cem. that I know of. However, I do believe there are relatives in just about every other cemetery. I have made it a quest to visit them all---some inaccessible without a lot of leg work and clearing paths etc. I am fortunate to live about 2 hrs. away from Newberry!! Should anyone want to visit cemeteries, go by the library and consult the maps they have---carry a present day map and compare. Valeria Seneca SC

I see no Davis names in the Quaker listings. However, I would be very interested in your Davis info. I have Chesley Davis and Mary (Tate) Davis in one of my lines. She is listed as a Quaker in the Bush River Monthly Meeting list of Quakers in Newberry Co. I would very much like to find the burial place for both of them. Chesley met an untimely death during the Rev. Would Brand be a form of the surname Brandt? That's another of my lines. Valeria Wigington
