Settled back in Lowry’s Crossing sitting on roughly 10 acres is Wilson Chapel Cemetery; the final resting place for members of many prominent families such as Bridgefarmer, Reneau and Rutledge.
The chapel was first deeded September 5, 1894, by A.E. and Bettie Wilson as a site for the Methodist Episcopal Church South. The wooden structure still has one of the original pews and the original bell in the bell tower.
