FROM THE INTRODUCTION The following work was not written to gratify any personal pique, for the author cherishes no animosity against any, but for the defense of the Gospel of Christ, and, (if the will of God be so;) for the deliverance of any of the Lord's Spiritual Israel who may be entangled in the anti-Christian web of those who propagate the errors herein exposed, and are under their yoke of bondage, so that they may not be partakers of their sins, and ultimately receive of their plagues. Our desire is, above all else, that the cause of Christ may be promoted, and that God, in all things may be glorified.

The cemeteries of Winston County contain the ancestors of the descendants who populate the county. They contain the remains of the earliest settlers, Civil War soldiers, early county officials and politicians, merchants, tradesmen, farmers, and their familes. Without their successful efforts to carve an existence out of the Winston County wildnerness, the rest of us would not be here. Much of the history of the county was written on the old tombstones found across the county. Volume I of this two volume series alphabetically covers Winston County Cemeteries A through L beginning with the Addison Church of God Cemetery and ending with the Liberty Grove Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery. The book contains dozens of pictures of the cemeteries plus hundreds of annotations which include sites of unmarked graves mentioned in newspaper accounts plus the company and unit of every known Civil War era soldier, both Union and Confederate.
