Pullett United Methodist Cemetery

To reach the cemetery from the Whaleyville vicinity, take Sheppards Crossing Road N from 610 (Whaleyville Road), then make a right onto Blueberry Road in approximately 750 feet. Cemetery will be on right-hand side opposite church.
This cemetery is called Pullet Chapel Cemetery on the USGS map. It is also known as the Whaleysville Cemetery.
This is an AA cemetery and I found it in decent condition, however many stones/graves are unmarked, partially buried, broken/in disrepair.
Mr. Armstrong and his son spoke with me from across the way at the small church. He explained the church is not in use anymore but the burial grounds are.
When facing the cemetery, if you look to the left there is a small mound, which Mr. Armstrong explained was a small family cemetery for the Hammond family. It has been moved to a new cemetery in Pittsville, as Mr. Hammond did not like the location.
I walked and transcribed all existing headstones in this cemetery Dec, 2007.

Notes:
1 Unmarked grave near Ernest R. Showell
1 Unmarked grave near Larry S. Williams
3 Unmarked stone slabs by Charles Hammond's grave
1 Unmarked stone slab by William T. Showell
1 Unmarked stone slab by Harry L. Jones and Bessie M. Dalton
3 Unmarked stone slabs by Lloyd Leonard and Linford Leonard
3 Unmarked stone slabs by George E. Dickson, Peter Edward Mumford and Annie Mae Mumford
3 Unmarked stone slabs by William Showell, Jr.
7 Unmarked stone slabs
1 Unmarked rough cut stone adjacent to the unmarked stone slab by William T. Showell
2 graves, both with wooden crosses, one that is broken
3 Unknown footstones � could be related to those already listed
1 funeral marker only � no name, b. 1918, d. b/l
"_" denotes missing numeral/letter
3 "A" marker only
3 "B" markers in spec
2 "J" markers in spec
1 "J" marker only � near Jones graves, by Marshall E. Roberts
3 "Tingle" markers
** = f/s only found
*** = crude cement name marker on top of stone slab � only "Hammo" part of surname shown but because of other graves/information on cemetery, I suspect and list as Hammond
**** = this was Mr. Armstrong's mother
*5 = wood cross with "Addie" in given name location. Rest of letters (potential middle name) and surname are all gone. No weathering spots on cross to indicate what the letters may have been. I searched the general area and found the letter "D" so this may be part of the surname. The funeral marker is completely blank.
