Wright Burying Ground
Posted by: Rita Jones (ID *****0061) Date: January 04, 2008 at 19:55:12
  of 686

From the book "Tombstone Records of Chester Co, SC" by Crowder (pg 39)..."there is an old Wright burying ground located in the Halsellville section of Chester Co, about 1-1 1/2 miles SW of Dr Isaiah Mobley house site. Copied by WT Castles, Jr.
Thomas ODONNELL died 31 July 1885 aged 60 years
Field stone with "SCW" scratched on it
Field stone with "EFW" scratched on it
Field stone with "BHW" scratched on it
Field stone with what appears to be "PRW"
Field stone with "SW". On this stone the "S" is reversed.
There are about 15 unmarked graves in this cemetery.
WT Castles, Sr remembered attending the burial of Miss Sue Wright, a sister-in-law of Thomas Odonnell. This took place about 1883."
Where is Halsellville - is this cemetery still there - does anyone have any information on the Wrights buried there or that lived in that area...thanks,
Rita
