Emeline - Inman Cemetery, 62-1 Summary Report, page 2

---

Emeline / Inman Cemetery, Redstone Arsenal, Madison Co. AL, March 11, 2003 Entrance gate, view to southwest across cemetery; tombstone behind top of right gatepost The basis of the cemetery name is uncertain, except that it is lost from living memory. The “old timers” have always referred to it as either the Inman Cemetery or the Emeline Cemetery. Arsenal offices have used both names, combined to cover all bets. The surname “Emeline” is not known to have been representative of any early settlers of the land in this area. The name “Inman” however is found in the early land records and census records of the county. In 1830 John B. (or “R.”) Inman with a wife and daughter was enumerated in the New Hope area in the southeastern part of the county. 2 - (2210)
