      Anderson County, South Carolina, USA
      https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/71015/pickens-cemetery
      Pickens Cemetery is approximately 3 miles inside Anderson County on Three & Twenty Road. It is not in Pickens County. Please do not add a cemetery in Pickens County for these burials.
      This is one of the oldest cemeteries in Anderson County, and this land was part of the Cherokee territory until 1777. It became the final resting place after the American Revolution for early pioneers who settled the area. A number of soldiers of the Revolution are buried here, including Robert Pickens, who served in the state militia and was related to General Andrew Pickens. It also contains the gravesites of many patriots of each war up through the Vietnam era.
