ELLIS-MARTIN CEMETERY
Ellis-Martin Cemetery is located on the Gray Station Rd across the road from Buffalo Ridge and Hales Chapel Rd. The land was part of the William Ellis original acres, later James Franklin Martin and Laura Adelaide Ellis lived on some of the land and other Martin kin. Today Sydney Benson Martin family still lives on the land where the cemetery is located which has been a cow pasture on a hill looking down at the James Franklin Martin home and a wooded area is adjacent to the cemetery. Sydney B. Martin store still stands beside the road where you turn to drive into the cemetery. Martin, Bacon, Ellis, Cox and Martin all shared the land at one time. And today like the Hunt-Martin Cemetery located on the Shadden Rd we find the Martin family buried on the east side of the cemetery and the Ellis family on the west side of the cemetery
