Hilliard Cemetery
Wake County, North Carolina

Wilmington Rd.
Garner NC

Lat: 35°43'22"N, Lon: 78°35'35"W

Contributed by Shirley Olson, Mar 29, 2003 [shirley32olson@yahoo.com]. Total records = 21.

From the intersection of Hwy. 70E and Jones Sausage Rd.(SR 2547), across from White Oak Shopping Center, go north on Jones Sausage Rd. about 1.5 mi., to a left onto Wilmington Rd., a gravel road. Go .5 mi. to the cemetery on your right. A grassy road leads to the cemetery which is visible from the road. Please do not confuse this road with Wilmington St., Raleigh, a major throughfare.

This is a private family burial ground which was still in use in 2000. It is neat and accessible. Descendants of the family still live on Wilmington Rd.

FH indicates a Funeral Home marker, no headstone

I have transcribe from my reading of the tombstones when I visited the cemetery in Mar 28, 2003.
