The Eden Preservation Society is a volunteer group focused on preserving the historic heritage of Eden and Rockingham County, NC.

BARNETT CEMETERY

The newly formed Cemetery Committee of the Eden Preservation Society began cleanup of the old Barnett Cemetery in Spray in
August 2009, but more work needs to be done to preserve this
historic cemetery. The crew plans to go back later this year to finish.
It is hoped that a fence can eventually be installed around this site
and a historical marker placed there.

Here are some before and after photos of the work that has
been completed so far. Please contact us if you would like to
help with this or future projects!
Or call: David Clay at (336) 427-5711

We also welcome your tax-deductible contributions for supplies!
