Prosperity Cemetery
The Prosperity Cemetery is located on McNeary Street (South Carolina Route 391) on the south side of Prosperity, South Carolina. The cemetery is about 3 acres (1.2 ha) in size, with more than 1,000 marked graves dating back to its founding in 1802. The cemetery is distinctive for the fine quality of its funerary art in what is essentially a rural backcountry setting, and for the unusual concentration of gravestones that were signed by local merchants and stonecutters. The cemetery was established as the burying ground for a Presbyterian congregation, but is now managed by a local cemetery company and now serves as the town's main cemetery.
