This partial cenus was taken by Lucile Smith Stinson of Bridgeport, Texas on April 30, 1992. This transcription by Mildred Stinson Brown. Personal notations in brackets[ ].
Located about 3 miles southeast of Greenville, Butler County, AL., off C.R. 45, this cemetery is adjacent to the Ebenezer East Baptist Church. Land for the cemetery was donated by James Craig when his son, John Fleming Craig, died in 1821. It was originally called the Craig Cemetery. John Fleming Craig was the first person to be buried in the cemetery. After James Craig died in 1860, his son-in-law, Samuel McCoy, was placed in charge of the grounds. The name was changed to Craig-Ebenezer Cemetery. I don't recall when the name was changed again to Ebenezer East Cemetery.
