Springwood Presbyterian Church Cemetery

By

Edna Ingle Blythe

Springwood Presbyterian Church and its cemetery are located at 6998 Springwood Church Road. They are in Guilford County, but just a stone’s throw from the Alamance County line. Large well-kept farms are all around, but fast-moving traffic on nearby I 85 – I 40 can be heard clearly, providing a reminder of the past with a glimpse of the future.

An iron fence with a lovely entrance gate encloses the cemetery. Tombstone readings were done in August 2002, beginning at the west side nearest the church. The graves were read by the row, with north or south locations determined by a drive that runs near the center of the cemetery. Some of the church founders have been honored by a monument placed near the church, not within the fence. Names from the monument, as well as some from tombstones outside the fence, are included in this listing. Most of the stones are legible, but it appears that some graves are not marked. Members of the church remember old stones being in areas where only grass grows today.

History from other sources has been added, and it is hoped that it will be helpful. Rev. G. W. Welker, D.D., married, baptized and confirmed many of the members at Brick Church who later came to Springwood. Using his records, court house and Bible entries, as well as personal interviews, many parents and spouses have been identified by the author.

The tombstones were read and recorded by Edna Ingle Blythe.

Pastors and Veterans are also listed on separate pages.
