Newland (Janes) Cemetery, Borland Springs, Wood Co, WV Contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives June 6, 2003 by Teresa LeMaster Fordyce Take Rt 50 east out of Parkersburg for about 16 1/2 miles to Borland Springs Road (just past Mountwood Park). Turn left off of Rt 50 onto Borland Springs Road. Follow Borland Springs Road for 2.75 miles. You will come to a low water bridge, cross the bridge and turn right onto Bull Creek Road (CR#1/6). Follow Bull Creek Road for about 2 miles to CR#20/2. Turn right onto CR#20/2. Cross the creek and stop at the very first gate at the base of the hill. Go through the cattle pasture about 200 yards, turn left and go up over the hill. The cemetery sits at the top of the hill to the left. This is a very old family cemetery. The property has been in the Janes family for several generations. The cemetery is surrounded by a fence. It is only mowed around Memorial Day. Many of the stones are very weather worn and difficult to read. Several of the stones have fallen over and/or are broken. Accuracy of this transcription cannot be guaranteed, please verify dates with other sources. I walked and transcribed this cemetery on May 26, 2003. Sparks, Clifford E.; b. 1915, d. 1984 Sparks, L.
