Eli S. Board Family Cemetery, deep in woods off Gregg’s Lane, Floyd Co., VA.

Note from Carol Lawrence Jacobson: “Kings Store Rd NE near the Floyd County Fire Station #3, about halfway between Daniels Run Rd NE and Good Neighbors Rd NE. Coordinates are very close, but approximate, because the cemetery is about a 10 minute hike up a hill into the woods.”
