GLADE CREEK CEMETERY

(AKA Mings Chapel)








Read by Randy and Sharon Pierce September 14, 2001
Our thanks go to Larry Coulter, Jane Eubanks, Etta Withers & Elaine Martin for the pictures of this cemetery! Updated Apr 2008 from pictures.

Per Rex Youngblood, Glade Creek Cemetery was started when his family donated the land for the church/cemetery.  They had a small Youngblood family cemetery on the land, and those graves were incorporated into the new cemetery.  They are the Youngbloods that are buried at the front left portion of the cemetery.

As hard as we all try, we are human and sometimes when reading a cemetery we miss a grave covered with leaves, fireants, or bushes. Sometimes the headstone has sunk and is mostly underground. Our area also has many graves only marked with iron ore rocks and even many unmarked graves. There are headstones that have long ago been destroyed by the elements or even vandalizm, and are hard to impossible to read the details. We would appreciate it if you would let us know if you did not find your relative which was buried here, and would appreciate your letting us use the information you know about them. With the combined efforts of us all, we can make the Upshur County website bigger and better.
