    1. [VATAZEWE] Claypool Family Cemetery
    2. Hi List, Anyone out there have any information on the Claypool Family Cemetery? It's located adjacent to Greenhills Memory Gardens in Claypool Hill/Cedar Bluff. I spoke with the county tax office, and they have the property listed as both Claypool Family Cemetery and Claypool Hill Cemetery, but couldn't find an owner. Apparently there is a question as to whether or not cemeteries are taxable. I spoke with Greenhills Memory Gardens, and they have no information on the property. They maintain it in order to keep the tall grass from making their property look bad. Greenhills opened in 1958 according to their office, and the adjacent cemetery was already there. I know that several of my ancestors were buried there in 1936 and 1944, and some may be there from as early as 1906, but for some reason the stones have been removed. We all know about that problem! Anyone knowing anything at all about the property, or anyone with any suggestions as to where to go next, please let me know. Diana in Georgia
