History

The James F. Ferguson Funeral Home

is located in downtown Blairsville.

Ferguson Funeral Home was founded in 

1922 by J. Freeman Ferguson. He started 

in a store front on East Market Street until 

the purchase of the present building in 

1932. The present building dates back to 

1902. J. Freeman's son, Robert W. Ferguson and

son-in-law, Walter C. Helm operated the business 

as Ferguson-Helm Funeral Home until Walter's

death in 1995 and Robert's retirement in 1996.

The Funeral Home is currently owned and

operated by the founder's grandson, 

James F. Ferguson III. This continues over 

85 years of family owned service for the 

Blairsville area. 

We also started selling Cemetery Memorials in 1970.

We offer quality granite or bronze memorials at very

reasonable prices.
