and the CouchTown Cemetery
When the Corps of Engineers relocated graves here for the Buckhorn Dam grave relocation
project, in 1962. The cemetery was named the Leatherwood Community Cemetery. This
cemetery is located approx 2/10 mile north on Route 2022 from Route 484
The cemetery is on the right. There were four graves moved here from the BowlingTown
Cemetery. That cemetery was located where the Marina at the Buckhorn Lodge is today.
Six graves were moved from the Will Gay Cemetery, located at the mouth of the Turkey
Branch.
Fifty graves were moved from the Asher Barger Cemetery, which was located where the
picnic area is at the Leatherwood Boat Ramp.
Graves with numbers are the graves that were moved.
