For 250 years, circa 1740-2007, the historic Spratt Family Cemetery stood at the corner of 5th Street and Caswell Road in Charlotte. Over the years, grave sites and markers were covered over and the cemetery's location was lost. Excavation in 2007 uncovered the cemetery and the graves of 14 settlers. The fragile remains of Thomas Spratt, his descendents, and these settlers were disinterred and reburied here at Steele Creek Presbyterian Church on July 14, 2007. These settlers were founding families of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The numbered markers denote 14 sets of remains from the Spratt cemetery and may include Thomas Spratt, the pioneer, 1685-1757; Andrew Sprot, who died November 29, 1772, aged 64 years; his wife, Mary Sprot, who died June 7, 1771, aged 64 years; William Barnet, who died March 14, 1778, aged 60 years; Mary Barnet, who died October 4, 1764, aged 45 years; Jean Barnet, who died April 20, 1776, aged 20 years; Thomas Barnet, who died May 3, 1776; John Jack Barnet, who died January 14, 1778, aged 9 months; James McKnight, who died October 23, 1764, aged 60 years; Robert McKnight, who died October 19, 1778, aged 60 years; Hugh Bingham, who died November 4, 1765, near whom also lay the body of Joseph Bingham, a child; Mary Bingham, who died January 18, 1772, aged 55 years; Samuel Bingham, Junior, who died April 25, 1774, aged 33 years; Esther Johnston, who died October 22, 1775, aged 31 years; and Catherine Peel, who died May 24, 1778, aged 50 years.
