CAMPBELL Cemetery, (Also known as the RUSSELL Cemetery) Contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives February 4, 2002 by Anne Bragg Lockard ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Russell Hill Road Ansted, West Virginia (Fayette County) Condition of Cemetery: Good Graves: 19-25 (?) Directions: On Rt. 60, at Ansted, take road on right, beside Deligne's Car Dealership. At bottom of hill is a bridge. Cross bridge and start up hill. Take first road to the right. A homemade sign welcomes you to Russell Hill. In between the fifth and sixth houses on the right is Cemetery. It is off the road. Rough access getting to CAMPBELL Cemetery, thru woods. Easier access may be possible if you knock on the door of the JAMES home and ask permission to walk in on the edge of their property. The cemetery lies in a wooded area. It has been cleaned up, with the exception of a few (?) graves that have been "lost" in the woods over the years. Also, there are a few graves with no markers. Data and pics were taken on the afternoon of July 17, 2001 by Anne Bragg Lockard and Helen Bragg Stone. Digital pics of each grave were taken. All names and data are recorded in my notebook.
