Location |
Fulks Run, Rockingham County, Virginia. From Fulks Run Grocery, turn from
Route 259 onto Route 612. After about 2 miles, turn right onto Highway 817 toward Mountain
Grove Church of the Brethren. Go past Mt. Carmel United Methodist Church. Turn into the
first gate on the left (be sure to shut the gate). Drive through the field down the hill,
across a small stream, to an old cedar about halfway up the next hill. The cemetery is
under the old tree. Remains of an old fence go through the plot. |
Notes |
In 1967 J. Robert Swank noted this cemetery on the
old Romanus Hoover place. "In field by a large cedar. No fence. Said to be 25 or 30
graves. No markers." Pat Ritchie wrote: "In 1998 property owned by Richard
Trumbo. Cemetery hard to find without a guide. There were 4 rocks marking graves and four
grave-marker rocks leaning against an old cedar tree. Didn't find indications of other
graves." |
