Very old Cemetary in Hillsborough, NC
I always love looking through old cemetaries and looking at tombstone art and inscriptions. In one case I found a typical freemason symbol, but instead of the normal G, it had a key inside the compass, Maybe someone who's more knowledgeable about secret society symbolism can help me. There's also many Confederate soldiers buried here as well.
Old Graveyard
This was an old graveyard in Hillsborough NC that I finally checked out and I wondered at first why there was so many unmarked graves. I eventually remembered that I had read that it was an old slave graveyard, which made me sad, because It makes you realize how hard these slaves worked and then are forgotten about through time, and in many cases end up with tombstones with no name.
Old Cemetary near Eno River
I was leaving the Eno River state park and happened to see an old church and very old cemetery, which I thought would be interesting to check out!

Take a journey with me as I explore this ghost town deep in the wilderness of North Carolina known as Lost Cove. Here is some of the history on the area: Although Lost Cove is believed to have been founded around the time of the Civil War, the town did not begin to prosper until the logging industry made Lost Cove a viable stop on the railroad tracks. With its location in the mountains, Lost Cove was an ideal logging area that provided many trees from the surrounding Pisgah National Forest. Now the town was thriving with the help of logging industries and railroads, residents were able to build a school to educate their children. However, timber is a limited resource, and as the supply of wood began to diminish, the railroad stopped servicing the town in order to focus on other industries like coal. With a major part of the economy deteriorated, residents lobbied to build a road into Lost Cove. Legislators denied this request and the people living in the town slowly began to move away until the town was abandoned in 1957. Check out the links below to learn more. Please be respectful of the history that does remain, thank you!

Abandoned Church and Owens-Bellview Cemetery Site
I found this abandoned church and Owens-Bellview cemetery site in an old ghost town called Parramore. Parramore was developed as a riverboat landing on the Chattahoochee River in Jackson County around 1870. By 1875 the community started to grow with three riverboat landings. The town, reached it's peak in 1905. Apparently the land was overfarmed by cotton and when the riverboat traffic was no longer needed the town died off.

One of the old ghost town sites in this part of Citrus County it was known as Orleans. The town had a small population of about 100 people. It may have been a farming and citrus community, the railroad and a railroad station were nearby. The town didn't last long up until around 1895 and may have died out because of the great freezes that destroyed a lot of crops. These towns were dependent on farming and other industries. Read more at the sites linked below. Metal detecting or taking artifacts that may be found is prohibited and illegal in this state forest. Not much history is left so it is important to help preserve what we can for future generations.

THE CEMETERY CHRONICLES: Historic Jedediah Peck Cemetery.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Jedediah Peck (January 28, 1748 -- August 15, 1821) was an American farmer, surveyor, Revolutionary War soldier, and New York State legislator described as a father of the common school system of the State of New York. He was a man of limited education and had no gift as a debater or speaker, but he was a skillful organizer. (His first name has occasionally been spelled Jedidiah or Jedadiah in the literature.)
An outspoken opponent of the John Adams administration and the Federalist Party in New York State, Peck was arrested by Federalist Judge William Cooper for circulating a petition against the Adams-era Alien and Sedition Acts and taken to jail in chains; massive protests from Peck supporters and opponents of the administration won his release without trial.
Peck was born in Lyme, Connecticut, one of thirteen children of Elijah Peck and Hepzibah Pierson. He was raised on the family farm, and his formal education was limited to attending a country grammar school, but he taught himself by reading the Bible many times over. In 1771 at about age 23, Peck returned from a sea voyage to learn that his parents, three brothers and a sister had died. He became extremely depressed and wrote in his journal that he longed for:
Days and times past when may father and Mother and all my bretherin and Sisters were about me in helth and prosperity but alas! trubel and Sorow hath Sorounded me and I am a poor Disconsolate Cretur. There is no place that Seemes to be home to me.
He kept that journal in a secret drawer in his desk throughout the remainder of his life, and from that time he became quite evangelical about his faith.
He served four years as an enlisted man in the American Revolutionary Army. In 1790 he settled in what was to become the town of Burlington, Otsego County, New York. When Burlington was formed from a part of the Town of Otsego in 1792, Jedediah Peck became Burlington's first Town Supervisor and remained in that job for eight years. He is said to have been elected to the position three times, the latest in 1820, when he would have been 73.
He also worked as a surveyor and millwright, studied law, was appointed as a judge, wrote political tracts, and conducted religious services on request. He is said to have been seen as an awkward figure, with his drawling, nasal, yankee twang and his saddle-bags filled with political papers and scraps that he distributed to all who would listen.
Peck was a strong anti-Federalist, and in 1798, Judge William Cooper, an ardent Federalist, had him arrested by a United States Marshal under the Alien and Sedition Acts for circulating petitions against those very acts. Peck was taken in irons to be tried in New York City. The spectacle of the martyred war hero being transpored in chains only served to help the Republican cause. Peck was soon released without trial.
He was a member of the New York State Legislature for eleven years, in the Assembly (1798--1804) and in the Senate (1804 to 1808).
While in the State Assembly (in 1801, 1803 and 1804), Jedediah Peck sponsored bills to establish common schools in the state, but each resolution was rejected. In 1811, after Peck's retirement from active politics, Governor Daniel D. Tompkins appointed Peck chairman of a five man commission to study the problem of public school education. In five months the commission reported the fundamental principals of New York's educational system. In 1812, a bill become law and the basic foundation of the state's public school system was established. The law requires:
that there be a division of towns into school districts;
that there be trustees in each district to superintend those schools;
that each town raise taxes as much as it received from the state school fund;
that the funds be divided among the various towns on a population basis, and then subdivided among the school districts.
In addition to his work in establishing the common school system of New York, he introduced a bill for the abolition of imprisonment for debt which later became a law.
Although nearly seventy years of age at the time, he served in the War of 1812, and took part in the Battle of Queenston Heights. He died at age 74 and is buried at the [1] in the Town of Burlington, New York. A New York State Historical Marker at the site reads:
In memory of Hon. Jedediah Peck, a Revolutionary Patriot, who died Aug 15, 1821, in the 74th year of his age. The annals of the State bear record of his public usefulness and the recollection of his virtues bear testimony of his private work.
