Rhoad - Bamberg Co SC- Hunter's Chapel Community

I've seen a couple of older messages about various Rhoads in the area of Bamberg County, South Carolina, known as Hunter's Chapel. I don't know if this will add any information that is not already known, but there are several marked graves in the Old Zion Methodist Church Cemetery:

John E. Road
Jan 13, 1847
Spet 18, 1868

Mary M.
Wife of N. D. Rhoad
Oct 2, 1821
May 10, 1896

Nathaniel D. Road
Oct 9th, 1812
Nov 6th, 1886

Hannah S.
Wife of J. E. Rhoad
Feb 16, 1848
Dec 25, 1896

The church relocated long ago, and this is almost an abandoned cemetery in the middle of a pine grove. I believe there are a number of graves that are buried in a century of pine straw and debris. Here are the ones that are marked: http://www.patsabin.com/bamberg/cemeteries/OldZionCem.html

Recently, I acquired the announcement of my grandparents' wedding Oct. 10, 1907. Several Rhoads and related families attended:
Rev. C. E. Walker, J. G. Rhoad, S. F. Berry, N. B. Rhoad, Misses Ollie and Florine Rhoad, and Mrs. Mamie Rentz of Hunter's Chapel.
