East End Cemetery ----- Works day canceled until further notice 
Hello,
my name is Tim Harris. My Grandfather, Doctor Peter Martin, is buried here in this cemetery. Do you have information on where approximately within the cemetery he is buried? Any information you can provide will be most welcome.
We don’t have any burial records as of yet so we only know of the graves whose markers we have uncovered. From the dates on Find A Grave, he probably is buried in the new section. It is about 10 acres in size and we have maybe a 20% cleared.

I had never been in Evergreen Cemetary before today. I was appalled with its condition. So in researching I saw where you had attempted to help here. My hats off to you. I applaud you. And I maybe able to have some young adults who would help at East End. Actually I was wrong..I was at Woodlawn where Arthur Ashe is buried…
We would welcome any help you could provide at East End Cemetery. Contact me at jshuck@rocketmail.com if and when you have a group that would be interested in coming out.
A friend shared your page on facebook. Thank you so much for finding my grandfather. I’ve been trying to figure out where my grandparents were buried. I can’t stop crying. Now I need to find my grandmother, she should be right beside him. Thank you!!!!
I recently found that a great Aunt of mines (Margaretta Judah Foster) was buried here at East End Cemetery in March, 1941.
I have been looking for my grandparents for four years. Thanks to you John Shuck & the awesome volunteers who have located my father’s parents in East End Cemetery. It was an emotional moment for me, because I am a family Researcher and it meant so much to me. Thanks again
I am looking for a friend of mine sister, named Darlene Robinson Feb. 11, 1960-April 30, 1960. She
was buried in East End Cemetery. By Lightfoot Funeral Home.
She could be buried in the childrens’ area. We have not found a marker for her yet.
I will let my friend know this information. Thanks.

Hi. I am trying to locate my grandmother. She was buried there back in 1958. Her nane is Estelle McKnight. Have you come across her grave marker there?
I checked and we have not come across her grave marker yet. We have over half the cemetery to clear yet so we could still find it. As we find grave markers, we post a picture of them on Find A Grave web site. See: https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=50095
My family has a plot out there. i see my great grandfather Charles Leslie Lee was located on find a grave. I have been out there looking around in the wooded area for years. I have a few family member yet I dont know there names. I was 7 years old when we buried my papa. I know there are others in that plot. Mozelle Gaskins, my uncle jelly roll (government name unknown) I would love to come out with you all to locate my family.
Thank you for letting us know about family buried at East End. We do have GPS coordinates for Charles Leslie Lee’s grave so we should be able to find it fairly easily. We work out at the cemetery most Saturday mornings, weather permitting. We would welcome you to come out and we can help you locate your family graves. You can see a calendar of when we are working at: https://eastendcemetery.wordpress.com/work-calendar/ John
I checked this morning and Welton and Hettie Lewis are also buried in the same plot.

I was so glad to see that you found my aunt Betty Stovall recently. I remember her death but never knew where she was buried. I was 14 years old in 1967. I do remember her remains were at Walter Manning Funeral Home. I finally found her on Find A Grave. THANK YOU!
You are welcome. We recently got GPS coordinates for the grave. Any time you want to visit, we would be glad to show you her grave. John
Hello.
I was able to find my mother’s (Josephine Simms Tucker; date of death 12/20/1963; memorial ID 197962851) burial plate at East End Cemetery.
Is this her actual burial plate that displays Erin Hathaway Palmer took the photo?
If so, can you please send me the GPS of where it’s actually located in the cemetery so that we (her children) can possibly get a headstone for it.
Thanks so much.

Photos of all the grave markers we have found at the cemetery have been put on Find A Grave. There still could be a few to be found but we think we have found most of them. John jshuck@rocketmail.com
