Dickson - Rainey Cemetery
Bibb County, Georgia, USA
It was surveyed in 1957 by the LDS church and was observed to have 8 marked graves and many unmarked graves totaling about 40 graves altogether. The property was also known as the Dickson burial grounds.
The property was owned by J.W. Edwards and condemned to build Lake Tobesofkee. Bibb County knew the cemetery was there but through the years the area was leveled and grassed over. There were only field stones to mark the head and foot of graves but that was destroyed.
