Old Presbyterian Church Cemetery, Orangeburg, SC
My interest in the Old Presbyterian Church Cemetery started with two death certificates....those of my second great grandparents, Cephas Manly McMichael and Rachael Elizabeth Jennings.  Both certificates state they are buried in the Old Presbyterian Church Cemetery.  However, their grave markers are side-by-side in Sunnyside Cemetery, also in Orangeburg, SC. (I can send you photos of the markers if you'd like them for your files.)

"Evans Family Cemetery"  Providence, SC
The Old Evans Family Cemetery is located in a sylvan setting about one mile behind the former home of Mr. Leroy Evans and about two miles west of Providence United Methodist Church on Old State Rd. (Highway #176) in Orangeburg County, South Carolina.  Follow this link to the page created for the the cemetery.

"Our Evans Heritage"
"Our Evans Heritage" is a book on the family history and genealogy written by Ms. Annie Belle (Evans-Dantzler) Bodie of Providence.  It has been updated by Mr. Jimmy Wroton of St. Simons Island, Georgia.  If you want to page through the book, click on the web page icon below.  If you would like to download the book (for printing) click on the word file below.  WE NEED YOUR HELP....watch for corrections, updates, etc. as you read and let me know if you find anything that needs attention.  For those of you with computer skills, the easiest (and best) way to make corrections is to copy the page you want to edit to your word processor, then e-mail the updated information to me.  I will update the text and make it available to everyone on the site.
