We are considering putting together a Veteran's Day Service on the Sunday afternoon before Veteran's Day maybe around 2 p.m. It will be a simple service with a devotion, reading of the deceased veteran's names, maybe a 7-gun salute, and placing American flags on the graves. What do you think?

My granddaughters helped me clean up Lindsay’s marker and place a new flag today.

I have been going through old records and Betty Thomas' History of HBC. Here are some tidbits I found about the cemetery:

- in 1937, the wrought iron fence was placed around the cemetery at a cost of $1,250.

- in May of 1947, the deacons recommended a charge of twenty dollars for lots in the new cemetery to secure funds to purchase a picket fence for enclosing the new section of the cemetery. The land for this part of the cemetery was donated by the Simpson and Cornwell families.

Welcome to the HBC Cemetery page. The cemetery dates back to the mid 1800's. Most of the people buried in the cemetery were faithful members of Harmony Baptist Church, Edgemoor, SC, which was established in 1839.
