History
13
The original five acre tract for this burial ground was purchased from the C.B. Livestock Co. on September 7, 1915, four years after the town of Ralls was founded. It was first used for the interment of W.H. Shell, who died in 1915. A Georgia marble Bible, erected in 1963 by the Ralls Garden Club, is one of many beautification projects by local organizations, including the Lions Club and Cemetery Association. Prominent community members are buried here, including town founder John R. Ralls, and the graves also include those of veterans of several wars.
