Ernest Myatt Presbyterian Church Cemetery
Wake County, North Carolina

4926 Fayetteville Rd. (401 S.)
Raleigh, North Carolina

Lat: 35°42'48"N, Lon: 78°39'30"W

Contributed by Shirley Olson, July 27, 2001 [shirley32olson@yahoo.com]. Total records = 147.

Directions: From Interstate Hwy. 40 which runs along the south side of Raleigh, take the Saunders St. exit south which flows into Fayetteville Rd, (401 S.). Go about 5 miles to a traffic light at the intersection of Old Stage Rd. and Fayetteville Rd. The large red brick church is on the right side of the road and the cemetery is behind it.

The church and cemetery were founded in 1923, and the church is named for the son of the original landowner who donated the site. The congregation has remained pretty much the same families over the years.

The original sanctuary is still in use although there have been additions. The cemetery and church are located on a busy highway about half way between the state capitol, Raleigh, and the once small town, Fuquay-Varina, (used to be 2 little towns until they combined into one). This was essentially farming (tobacco) country for generations, but is urbanizing at a tremendous rate. Tobacco is one of the most lucrative (per acre) crops grown. These days there are more subdivisions and less tobacco growing around here.

Cemetery was physically surveyed by Shirley Olson & Gordon Olson in July of 2001, with a visit to the cemetery, reading all the headstones.
