Graves in Gormania, Grant County, West Virginia
Transcribed by Sonny O'Haver <pupcake@gcnet.net>

Sonny writes, "I have a list of names who are buried in
Gormania, WV. Grant Co. I don't know the name of the cemetery or even if
it has a name. I figure to be about 30 + or - people buried there for
the graves are sunken in. There is only a few with markers and a few
with names on them. Was told that they had wooden crosses as markers.
I am still trying to find who is all there, if possible.
The attachment is the list I have so far."

"There is another Cemetery that is between Bayard WV(Grant Co.) and
Thomas WV(Tucker CO.). There is only 2 people here husband and wife buried
behind their house.
Their names are George Ed Helmick 1878-1941 and Thursie Helmick 1884-?
She has died they never filled in the marker of the date she died."
