About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This cemetery is located near the North West corner of the intersection of Stilesboro Rd (runs East and West), Stanley Rd (on the North) and New Salem Rd (on the South). It is next to, or on, the property of the Marietta County Club. The cemetery and its entrance are on the NW side of Stanley Rd. There is an iron fence around the cemetery. (See the GPS map and the satellite view on the cemetery record for more details.)

This site is believed to be the second location of the New Salem Baptist Church and cemetery. There are between 30 and 40 field-stone marked graves that are not inscribed.

(The New Salem Baptist Church on New Salem Road has no records of this cemetery ever belonging to that church.)

Whenever I post details of where I obtained the data for this cemetery record, someone, somehow, deletes that information without telling me why. So I assume these last two paragraphs will be deleted soon. 9-15-2016

(From the book "Cobb County, Georgia Cemeteries", Volume II page 329.) The name of the cemetery at the top of this note is the name at the top of page 329. This book is found in the main branch of the Cobb County Library in the "Georgia Room". Anyone finding that book and looking for this cemetery by that name can find it here.

(Note: There is a road signpost near the cemetery that has three signs on it. The top sign has reads "Adopt-A-Cemetery". The middle sign reads "NEW SALEM CEMETERY". The bottom sign reads "PROVINCE PROPERTIES, INC.".)
