Shiloh Baptist Church ~Firetower Rd~ Cemetery

Transcribed by members of the Grave Site Survey Task Force (GSSTF) Under the Auspices of Isle of Wight County Historical Society (IWCHS) Visited April 24, 2005
A selection of shaving foam, water, or talcum powder was used to improve the legibility of the inscriptions on the older tombstones. A soft chalk marker was used to indicate those tombstones that had been transcribed the chalk does not damage the tombstones and washes completely away after a rain, even with a heavy dew. Afterwards, a clean water spray was used to remove any residue. GSSTF members were careful not to damage tombstones or artifacts during the transcription process. Any text within the [ ] is a comment about the tombstone inscription, ex., [fs] indicates a footstone inscription. Throughout the transcribing process, an attempt was made to preserve the, look and feel of the original inscriptions as regards word spacing, arrangement, and possible misspellings.
