This blog will provide information about cemeteries and graveyards in both Monroe and Greenbrier Counties in West Virginia.

Our Mission

Our mission is to log locale's and photographs of as many graves and cemeteries as possible within Monroe and Greenbrier Counties.

We are a one-woman team, so progress may be slow, and will take place as weather permits. If you know of a cemetery or graveyard that you would like to see showcased here, please let us know.

************************

At this time these are all of the photographs I have of the Carmel cemetery. I hope to get there and take a complete catalogue of stones in the next few months.

Tomorrow we will begin a few photographs of the Old Rehobeth Church Cemetery. Again, these are limited, and a complete catalogue of stones will be forthcoming.
