Overview

Maloney Springs Cemetery, located in the Fair Oaks community between Marietta and Smyrna, likely dates to the 1850s. It was previously connected to a church, usually identified as Maloney Springs Primitive Baptist Church. While the church apparently closed its doors in the 1960s, the burying ground, also known as Fair Oaks Cemetery, remained in use. The cemetery is near Fair Oaks Elementary School.
