The first known survey of this cemetery was done by Dr. Allan E. Marble on August 9, 1967. Per his usual method he did not give the cemetery a name but assigned it an identifying number, in this case 55. However, he noted the location incorrectly as Lawrencetown. Although the cemetery is located not far from the boundary of Lawrencetown, the correct location is actually South Williamston.

At a later date, Genweb volunteers transcribed Dr. Marble's original survey notes and made them available online at Rootsweb and, at that time, the volunteers named it "Whitman-Cunningham Cemetery" and cited the correct location, South Williamston.

DIRECTIONS: Situated on a hill overlooking the Valley, this cemetery is on the south side of Hwy 201, east of Civic #6844. The entrance is marked by brick pillars set in a wrought iron fence.
