This is the tree filled with Spanish moss at the back of the cemetery. |

This is the front of the cemetery. The plaque on the stone fence says Biddle Cemetery. |

This is a few of the tombstones. |

Several years ago, when there was no barrier to the field that this cemetery is in, I took lots of shots of the graves. All those pictures were on my very first computer. You know what happened! Crash and I lost them all. I have always wanted to go back to do the Biddle Cemetery again. I do not know anyone that could give me permission, and every time since, when we went by, the gate to the field was locked.
This past week on a very hot day we were headed somewhere else and we passed the field. The gate was wide open. After looking around and not seeing anyone working in the field, we dared to go in. Drove up the path to the cemetery. The condition was not as good as the first time I took pictures. The grass and weeds were so high I wouldn't go inside the fence. I quickly hurried around the outside and took a few pictures. We wouldn't stay long as we didn't want the farmer to come back and lock the gate while we were back there. These pictures are not as good as the first ones, but I'm glad I took the chance.
