Wilson ******************************************************************************** JOHN MORRIS CEMETERY Surveyed By BUFORD C WILSON MILDRED J WILSON Buford_Wilson@Hotmail.Com This cemetery in Carroll County VA is at the end of Rt 874 (Cemetery Road). The intersection of Cemetery Road and Rt 608 (Old Appalachian Trail) is 1.3 miles from Highway 52 at the top of Fancy Gap Mountain. By tradition the cemetery was started by John Morris in 1858. I’m sure he would be well pleased with the outcome of his efforts. This a very beautiful cemetery and it is well cared for. There are several soldiers laid to rest here, Civil War veterans, World War II, Korean War and Vietnam Conflict veterans, among them is the grave of Charles B Morris who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism on the field of battle.
