BLANTON CEMETERY
Cleveland County, NC
By Roy Brooks (not dated)

This cemetery is located kind of behind the Cleveland Memorial Cemetery. It is
south of highway NC-150 about one mile east of Boiling Springs, NC. The
cemetery is about 250 yards off the east side of a farm road at a point .7
mile off highway NC-150. It appears to be about one acre in size with most of
the graves marked with fieldstones, some of which have initials cut into them
and can still be read.
