The John Martin Shuford Gravesite
Buried here is Loyalist John Martin Shuford who died June 22, 1780 of wounds received in the Battle of Ramsour's Mill. His grave was originally marked with an old headstone and footstone. In 1997 the Lincoln County Historical Association and Shuford descendants dedicated a new monument to his memory and removed the original grave marker to the Lincoln County Museum of History.
Marker can be reached from Jeb Seagle Drive 0.2 miles north of Linwood Drive, on the left when traveling north.
