Cross-Slingluff Cemetery

• Location: The Cross-Slingluff Cemetery is (or possibly, was) located on Enterprise Road across from the main entrance to the old Warington plantation, which is now the P.G. County Country Club. In 1977, the cemetery lay on a slight rise to the east of and slightly behind the large old house that sits among the newer homes built there. That house was on Cross and then a Slingluff property and was known as Locust Grove. The nearest cross street, which was put in at the time of the development of the lots surrounding this old Cross/Slingluff property (after 1985), may be called Locust Grove Drive or something similar. The graves include those of Trumman Cross Slingluff, Fielder Cross, and other members of this family. Violetta Waring, who is buried across Enterprise Road in the Warington Cemetary, died in this house.

  There was a different cemetery for the families that lived at Cream and/or Friendship at the intersection of what is now Enterprise Road, Central Avenue (Rt 214) and Watkins Park Drive.
  The remains were disinterred, supposedly, prior to construction of Kettering in 1968-69 and moved to Holy Trinity in Bowie.

Holy Family Church

• Location: There is at least one grave site under Holy Family Church on Woodmore Road in Mitchellville and possibly more. The former pastor, Rev.Robert Mulligan, SSJ, has shown the grave site and reported that the church was reputed to have been built on what was an Indian burial site and he thought these were remains encountered during construction. Many of the original parishioners were members of the Proctor, Swann, Queen and Savoy families, many of whom were Wesorts and did intermarry with the local Indians. The head of the Queen family helped construct the church in 1890.
