Cropper Christian Church Cemetery

This transcription completed by Belinda Tipton Murphy, with photos taken by brother-in-law, Donald Murphy.   This project is complete and current to 01 Jan 2004.   This is still an active and growing cemetery.   It has an access road which essentially splits the cemetery in half.   The listing is alphabetical by surname, but not necessarily within those groupings.
