Floyd ==================================================================== BACK ELLIOTT CEMETERY Rutherford County, NC By Molly Sorrels Brown itsmollyb@juno.com From Highway US-64-74A, about four miles west of Rutherfordton, NC turn north on Cove road to Owenby Road which turns right. Go about 1-2 miles on Owenby Road, on the right side of the road watch for a large barn with outbuildings, then just past the barn was an older, rather rough looking single wide trailer. I think it is the next pasture on the right, go to far end of pasture to the gate. Go through the gate across the field about 1000 yards to the WOODED RIDGE ON THE RIGHT. The graveyard is a very short distance on top of this ridge. It has recently been cleaned up and is good condition. There are 7 - 10 unmarked graves with field stones.
