BROWN CEMETERY (on Corinth Road) This cemetery is on the Corinth Road about a mile from the Corinth Church on property owned by Ken Hines. It is fenced and very well maintained. In addition to the 24 inscribed markers, there are 10-15 fieldstones. In some cases inscribed stones appear to have been added alongside the fieldstones. Name

And beneath the green sod I am laid with the dead?
When the heart that loved you is turning to clay,
And in the calvary’s cold, cold dews I am, I am passing away
