Rennick calls it a Locale (geography), these generally fail WP:GEOLAND as locales are, by definition, not communities. Pre-1954 topos show nothing named Cross Road, 1954 and 1955 topos show a Cross Road Church. Next topo (1967) shows the Cross Road label, but no buildings there. No matter what search terms I use on newspapers.com and Google books, I can bring up nothing meaningful for this. As a locale, it fails WP:GEOLAND, and WP:GNG does not seem to be met.

Delete the nominator is correct. This does not pass Wikipedia notability guidelines for WP:GEOLAND Paul H. (talk) 21:17, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Checking the coordinates this place appears to be a cemetery, not a settlement, which matches up with the site previously housing a church. Churches and Cemeteries are not assumed notable in WP:GEOLAND and there is no evidence that this one passes WP:GNG 86.23.86.239 (talk) 00:36, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
