  1. I am inquiring about graves of my family that aren’t listed on the Pactolus Methodist Church Cemetery. My grandfather William Wesley Hicks was buried there in 1933. DOB: 8/17/1865 DOD: 3/15/1933. Son of Zeb Hicks, Husband of Telitha Hall Parker Hicks. I also have two siblings buried there, one on either side of William Hicks. My brother, William Larry Hicks, 1942 and sister, Carol June, 1944. Hamlet Dobson handled the funerals. Thank You.

  2. Florine Kirkland b. 25 Jan 1930 in Telfair Co., GA d. 24 Jul 1930 in Kingsport, Sullivan, Tennessee. She was buried in Pactolus Cemetery per her death certificate. Death Certificate #17516
