Topic: Preserving Small Family Cemeteries
Speaker: Joel Hobby
The preservation of the McCuller Cemetery located off of Donnybrook Rd in southern Wake County has come a long way since the idea was born in 2022. From a nearly invisible resting place covered in brambles at risk from a looming development project, it has emerged as a neat, cared for cemetery with a historical marker and volunteers dedicated to keeping it visible and historically relevant. Come here the story of the McCuller process from idea, to strategic planning, fund raising, historical research, and volunteering. Joel is a McCuller descendent and will share his experiences.
