This cemetery in Grayson County VA is located on a hillside on the
north side of Rt. 604 (Liberty Hill Road), .25 mile from its
intersection with Rt. 647 (Stevens Creek Road). The cemetery is in
a hayfield and is visible from the road. The cemetery is on private
property and permission is needed to visit it. The cemetery has a
good fence, but it is overgrown with grass. I found one grave marked
with a fieldstone and 2 more indicated by sunken ground. There may
be others that are hidden by the high grass.
