Find A Grave Name: Indian Ridge Baptist Church, Franklin Co., VA. I really believe this is an error, understandable as there is an Indian Ridge Baptist Church in Franklin Co., VA but an error none the less.

Hello J. & B!

1st THANK YOU for all your contributions. I really do appreciate your time & effort. However, I do have a correction to make on this, Ira James Dickerson Memorial.  All is correct except his place of burial. I'm updating cemeteries of Floyd Co, VA for the US GENWEB site & the Floyd Historical Society. This cemetery was visited & documented as the Dickerson Cemetery by Phyllis Goad Phillips and Genevieve Cochran Starkey for their book Dickerson Cemetery, Cemeteries Floyd (Montgomery) County, VA Burks Fork District Volume II  #77 of 109 Cemeteries, pg 58. It's location is described as in Willis off SR 630 up a lane abt 1m along Indian Ridge, Floyd Co., VA.   BTW the 3 children noted are those of Ira & his 1st wife Mary Jane (Hall of Hale).

Thank You for considering this change. Barb Camery Reininger
