Millsaps Cemetery, aka Old Pleasant Valley Cemetery
More detailed information can be found at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~barlow/OPV.html
According to the Copiah County Courier, a newspaper, in an
article dated Wednesday, October 18, 1978, the Old Pleasant Valley Cemetery had
been recently renamed the Millsaps Cemetery. The reason for the name change is
that appears to be at least one other Pleasant Valley Cemetery in the County.
Go west from Hazlehurst on Hwy 28 to Sylvarena Road. Turn around and go back toward Hazlehurst
7/10 of a mile and you should see a dim road leading off to the right and the
cemetery is probably in sight since the clearing, being a few hundred feet from
the Hwy 28.
