About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

"Walker Top" or "Walker's Top" Cemetery was once a churchyard. Located in the South Mountains, the wooden church (established 1845)is used only for special gatherings. The congregation moved to what is now Pleasant Ridge Church, leaving the small graveyard.

Take I-40 west from Morganton to exit 103, turn left , travel Hwy. 64 west 0.8 miles to Salem Rd., turn left on Salem Rd., go about 1.0 miles. Turn left on Burkemont Rd., go past Burkemont Baptist Church, the road turns sharply, continue on past Mull's Grove Baptist Church, and the road ascends to the top of the mountain. It is about 5 miles from the turnoff.
