Most of my recent Brock relatives are buried at Silverbrook Cemetery, E. of
White Street., S. of Cemetery Road, at the southeastern city limits.
According to some information I found in a book about South Carolina - "Samuel
Wilkes, belived to be the first Andersonian to die in the War Between the
States, lies buried here.  Before the city bought the property in 1898, it was
a picnic ground..."

There is another cemetery in Anderson that I passed by last week when I
visited, however I got distracted and did not go back to see it's name.  Would
anyone know the name of the cemetery.  It looked very old and was on the same
side of town as the old mill.

I am still looking for the gravesite of my great-uncle Willie Carson Brock.
He was born in 1892, worked at a sulphur mine.  A relative was at his autopsy
in Anderson and it was assumed that he was buried in Anderson.  Death was
believed to be 1920's.

Any help on the cemetery name or on Willie Carson Brock would be appreciated.
