Denny Tennant Cemetery Monongalia Co., WV Directions: This cemetery is in Battelle District, but I have decided to include it, as I have found no other record of it, and it is not far from the Clay District line. From Rt. 7W, turn left onto Miracle Run Road. Go 4.6 mile to a gate on the right. The cemetery is about .5 mile from the gate, in the woods, on the side of the hill to the right of the gate. Not cared for, no pines. *************************************************************************** File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Bonnie Wilson [barn@westco.net] February 15, 2006 *************************************************************************** To contribute additional information and/or photographs, please Contact WV Tombstone Transcription Project Manager Teresa Searcey-Casiano at tlcasiano@gmail.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mathews, Curtis L.* - January 17, 1879 ~ August 30, 1908 "How desolate our home bereft of thee" Mathews, Luella *- September 23, 1867 ~ August 18, 1940 "At rest" Mayfield, Lark - s/o Salvants and Jane, died January 15, 1879, 22 days Tennant, Denny* - February 9, 1829 ~ July 20, 1909 "Let our Fathers will be done" Tennant, Elizabeth Anne *- April 27, 1836 ~ September 18, 1896 "She was a kind and affectionate wife, A fond mother, friend to all, Alas she left us, her spirit has fled, Her body now slumbers along with the dead" Tennant, Infant - s/o Denny and Elizabeth "Dear lovely babe, to part with you, Hath racked our hearts with pain, But though our loss is great, we trust, Tis your eternal gain" Tennant, Oliver* - August 22, 1860 ~ June 21, 1886 "Death has been here and borne away, A brother from our side, Just in the morning of his day, In youth and love he died."
