Howell Cemetery
Wake County, North Carolina

Lat: 35°44'30"N, Lon: 78°56'41"W

Contributed by Shirley Olson, Jun 24, 2002 [shirley32olson@yahoo.com]. Total records = 5.

Located on the north side of Hwy. 64 West, 1/10 mi. inside Western Wake Co. from the border with Chatham Co. No longer in use. A small path leads up an incline to the cemetery.

From comments by Wayne Abbott, a son-in-law of the Howell family: The land where the cemetery sits is no longer owned by the Howells who at one time held a vast amount of acreage in this part of the county.
