Poplar Branch Cemetery

Located near Jamesville, Martin Co., NC.

This cemetery is located on NC Highway 171 in Jamesville, NC. It is on the 640-acre tract that Jasper Hardison was granted from England in 1727. Jasper Hardison's eldest son, John Hardison inherited this tract per the will of Jasper Hardison. The will of Jasper Hardison is located at NC State Archives and is dated 1733.

The cemetery is a short distance from the main road. A hike through the woods is necessary. There is an old cart path that runs near the cemetery. The path resembles an old creek bed. This road was the main road in the 1700's and 1800's. Poplar Branch is mentioned in many old Martin County Deeds. The very early deeds refer to it as Beaver Dam Branch. The early deeds refer to the cart path as Chappel Road.
