The condition of this cemetery was very disappointing. Half the stones are erased. My 2nd cousins were nice enough to show me where the cemetery was and to take their weed wacker. There are no signs marking that this is the Puckett Cemetery of Dickenson County. The information below is not guaranteed. Lizzie B.
