Burial	Also known as Lost Corner Church.
Note	There is a map of burials on the wall of Berea Church Cemetery. On it is a notation of a burial plot for a Nancy Jane Cornine. I believe this is the daughter of Mary "Nancy" Jane Shemwell. The map was created after a fire destroyed the original Cemetery Records kept in the house of original care taker.
