Laws Chapel Cemetery
Originally a family cemetery, this burial ground began upon the death of Henry G Law (1813-1854), son of George and Martha McDonald Law, who died shortly after the family moved here from Georgia. The site eventually became a community cemetery. Another son, Richard R Law donated 6 acres to the Laws Chapel Church and cemetery in 1869. The graveyard was shared with near by Piney Grove Baptist Church after it was established in 1887. Expanded by 1.5 acres in 1941. The cemetery continues to serve the community, and remains a chronicle of the pioneers, veterans, and families of Cass county.
