Marble Springs Church Cemetery
Talladega
Talladega County
Alabama USA
Cemetery notes and/or description:
This cemetery site is actually about eight miles out of the town of Talladega.
Located about 8 miles east of Talladaga on the road to Jemison's (Turner's) Mill.
Approximately 300ft from Choccolocco Bridge, SE of creek, East side of Highway.
The Church and Cemetery was reported as gone, but we just found some tombstones in the area. In 1973 a cotton field covered the original site, according to reports, but we have just learned that there was a Restoration Committee and members of the Talladega County Historical Association say the President of the Cemetery Association is Judith Lavender, who knows all about this restored cemetery. Well, it hasn't yet been restored.
Certain people were known to have been buried at this site, including "The Cunningham family". We will be getting an updated list soon and a pictures of the cemetery has just been added here.
