Pleasant Hill Cemetery - 1937

  • Survey Compiled by the Historical Records Survey of North Carolina
  • Hendersonville, N.C.
  • Henderson County
  • Worker:  Shepard
  • Location:  Go 2 1/2 miles south west of Hendersonville on the Crab Creek road turn to the right and the cemetery is on the right side of the road about 1/8 mile from surfaced road. You turn off to the cemetery about 2 city blocks before you reach Pleasant Hill church which is on the left on the Crab Creek Road.

The graph above shows a distribution of graves by family name at the time of the survey.  Information below is recorded directly from the 1937 survey without corrections.  The "Age at Death" was not included with the original survey and I include this additional information.  There are 96 recorded burials in 1937 with the first burial being M. E. Camp that died in 1887.  The most recent burial was Albert Hamilton Drake that died March 29, 1937.   Ema Moore is recorded as the oldest person buried in this cemetery being born in 1815 with death during 1920.  There are 22 buried here (23%) that never reached the age of 10.
