POLLY MALONE CEMETERY, (African American section;
Browns Ferry Road), LIMESTONE COUNTY, ALABAMA
This map shows the GPS Coordinates of the Malone Cemetery - African American section. GPS is also known
as the
Latitude and Longitude location.
From Athens travel Hwy 31 south to Tanner & turn east (left) on Huntsville-Brownsferry
Road. Go a few miles to the Malone Cemetery Road and turn north (left) and follow that to
the cemetery about 1/2 mile from the road.
This aerial view above
shows the cemetery located under a stand of trees on a small hill. The white
area is the southwest corner of the cemetery area and the black citizens are
using the pretty much the rest of the cemetery which is still active today.
This map shows the layout of the sections of this cemetery. The break in
sections will be obvious when you see the cemetery. The upright & box tombs from
the old white section are very very old while the black citizens use this
cemetery even today - using modern granite monuments. In no way am I specifying
the legal boundaries of anything in this cemetery. These are estimates of
general areas drawn up by this researcher for use by all the descendents of this
cemetery to find their kin.
