An anchor fence was put around this cemetery by Ethel Daniel Moon, wife of 
Channing Horsley Moon in the 1970s. It is located to the left of "Traveler's Rest" 
Residence.  On a hill to the far left is another cemetery where slaves were buried. 
Traveler's Rest was a James River Plantation in Buckingham County, Virginia which 
had been in the family since the 1600s.  At the death of Channing Moon, the last 
of the Horsley blood line to live there, the home passed to his two nieces who sold it.
