CEMETERY HISTORY:
------------------------

This Friendship Community cemetery is located on what use to be a plantation.  
When the plantation owner (Sayor?) died, he willed his land to his Slaves.  It 
is believed that this is the cemetery where the Slave landowners buried their 
dead.  It also could have started off as the place where the plantation owner 
buried his Slaves.  About 5-years ago, a Negro man visited this cemetery and 
said that he had relatives buried there.

Current landowner:
George Skelley, 130 Ponderosa Dr, Six Mile, SC 29682, 864-868-2757
