Feathers-Shipe Family Cemetery

   This cemetery is really hard to find, it is a clearing in the woods
behind Walter Feathers’s place. He was my wife's grandfather. There are
16 marked graves of which only 8 have a monument. 2 others have the
funeral directors marker which can still be read. 6 other graves are
marked with a funeral director marker and are completely illegible.
There are also 6 graves only marked with field stones. By the appearence
of the ground it is likely to have a couple to several more graves there
completely unmarked. Most of the graves marked with field stones appear to
be infant or child graves.
   To get to this cemetery take Cullers Run road till you come to a fork
in the road right beside a white house turn right, go past the next house
turn right onto a very rough road go to the top of the hill take a hard
left, the cemetery is on the right just short of the clearing. These are
