Crary Memorial Cemetery
Also known as Pleasant Hill Baptist Church Cemetery , Pleasant Hill Cemetery
Century, Escambia County, Florida, USA
This large community/family cemetery, sometimes called Pleasant Hill Cemetery, is one of our county's oldest. At the time of visit, it was well-trimmed and very clean. It is thought that Cornelius Brown was the earliest burial (1810-1855). This cemetery is still active, and there are approximately 800 graves here, some very recent to 2006. There are numerous large conifers spotted throughout the site.
In the 1980s, John Crary of Bluff Springs, local mail carrier and dairy man, stated that there were no community records kept for this cemetery. However, the WFGS surveyed and published their report in 1985, as did local resident, Barbara Dean, in the Deep South Genealogical Journal of Mobile, Alabama.
Two brick columns stand as sentinels at the entrance, noting John W. Crary, 1814-1897, and Seana L. Crary, 1834-1906 on one; and Crary Memorial Cemetery on the other.
