Liberty Hill, Cypress Creek, Old Cover Wagon Cemeteries

I would like to correspond with anyone that has family in these cemeteries in Lafayette Co., MS. Liberty Hill, Cypress Creek aka Old Cypress and Old Cypress Creek, aka Old Covered Wagon. Actually someone else named the Cypress Cemeteries because they did not know the actual names and are as I said Cypress Creek and Old Cypress Creek. The old deed to Liberty Hill Cemetery grants John H. Jones, F. Coward and A. Patton as trustees or custodians and all their heirs and was given to them by J. Ferrell 5 acres of land, not to be sold or used for self purposes. I cannot find a deed on the Cypress Cemeteries and wonder if anyone out there has any info concerning them or any old cemetery records to Cypress Creek Primitive Baptist. These are in the Holly Springs National Forest in Mississippi. My family and a few others are going to set up a trust fund for these cemeteries to insure that they are kept up and not forgotten. These are our old pioneering cemeteries from some of the first settlers in this area. If anyone has information it would be greatly appreciated and if anyone needs a cemetery look up for these, please email me at TammWils6@aol.com. I would be glad to look up or forward a copy of the deed to Liberty Hill. Thank you. Tammie Jones Wilson
