Daniel Dulaney Family Cemetery, off Posey Rd NW, Alum Ridge District, Floyd Co., VA.

One of at least three Dulaney family cemeteries in the Alum Ridge area. Located in the woods near Pleasant Valley Church of the Brethren, but better accessed off Posey Road. This cemetery was previously confused or conflated with a second Dulaney cemetery in a pasture on the same farm, now belonging to the Mitchell family. Cemetery is not maintained and is accessible only by hiking uphill in the woods. Trees have overgrown most of it. Some stones are still visible. The list of graves was provided by the late Eldora Dulaney of Alum Ridge, but there may be other unknown burials here.

FAG Note:

Buried in the third row graves along with his wife Permelia (Millie) and two of their other children, their names unknown, as well as daughter Mary Arzetta “Zettie” Dulaney Akers , and Zettie’s husband, Madison Texas Akers. Date of birth is extrapolated from his gravestone, but off approximately 1 year based on 1870 census. The 1870 shows Mary is the oldest child, and a slightly younger daughter Martha Josephine Dulaney Hurt. His marker is currently broken over and hidden beneath ancient boxwoods. Susan Woodhouse.
