BURIAL OF CATHERINE WALK
Hebron Lutheran Church was built about 1740. Her father was a Church Trustee. It has been said by Author William Peter Huddle that the ground around it was long considered unfit for burial purposes, so the Church did not have a cemetery. It wans'mt until 1900 that the first burial in the new cemetery occurred. Later, "the bodies of those buried on the hill and some from other burying grounds have been removed to the new cemetery and a number of beautiful stones have already been erected. The ground has proved to be unusually good for burial purposes, and the general opinion is that the change has been a good one. The people see the importance of a cemetery near the church, where it will be better cared for and where they can more easily visit, when they come to worship, the resting places of those " whom they have loved long since and lost awhile."
Catherine, as well as her mother-in-law and father were buried on their plantation lands they once owned and lived upon.
