My Clergy Relatives

A Virtual Cemetery created by musicalpreacher

33 memorials

These are the graves of the clergy on my family tree whose burials have been located. I have had active clergy relatives in every consecutive year since my fourth great grandfather, Levi Garrison, was ordained an itinerant Methodist preacher by Bishop Asbury in 1800. Most were Methodist and served in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and South Carolina. There have been clergy members of the North Alabama Conference on my tree during every year of our existence. The Taylor, Blackburn, and Hamby pastors are from my mother's side and span North Alabama history. The West, Maxwell, Garrison, Meaders, and Quillian pastors are from my father's side and span North Georgia history. As if this were not enough, I married a clergywoman who descends from a number of clergy and have included Jones clergy here. As a minister, getting in touch with these saints gives me strength and perspective for my journey.
