Surveyed by: Wayne N. Carpenter on October 26, 1999. Surveyed by Angela Cassidy and Donna Warlick on October 23,
2010. We used Wayne's index and built upon it, adding new burials and more directions.
Directions:
From Chattahoochee: Travel south on Bonnie Hill Road (Hwy 269). Go 4.1 miles to Hardaway Road (Hwy 268). Turn left
and go .8 mile. Cemetery is on left side with the name on brick pillars (the last cemetery in a row of 3).
From Quincy: Take U.S. Hwy 90 west to Gretna, and turn left on Hardaway Road (Hwy 268). Go 10 or 12 miles through
nothing but farm land, and see the cemetery on the right, just before Lincoln Road comes in from the right. It has wrought
iron gates.
There are three cemeteries at this location. McAlpin, clearly identified, is the farthest east. Bonnie Hill Cemetery is in the
center, with no identification. It has no gates or fence; the fences on both sides are those of the other two cemeteries. It
winds around to the right and behind McAlpin Cemetery. The one farthest west (toward Chattahoochee) is Colson Cemetery
and is clearly identified.
There are two unidentified graves other than those mentioned in the index. There are probably a dozen stones that have been
replaced since the 1999 survey, mostly people in the Ferrell family. Now their stones match in design. I know they are new,
because Wayne Carpenter's survey had different death and birth dates on a lot of them and had epitaphs which have not been
carried over to the new stones. For sentimental reasons, some of the epitaphs have been preserved in this index, although you
can see by the stone's photo that they are not there anymore.
As in every cemetery index, if the surname is in burgundy font, that is one photo of the tombstone. If the
given name is also in color, that is a second photo of the tombstone as a closeup or of a military plaque.
Be sure to click on both.
