ANDREW NAFF CEMETERY

N 36 59.582  W 80 15.438

Documented 21 Apr 2010 by Judy Blackwell & Genevieve C. Starkey

 

This cemetery is located in the northeast area of Floyd County, VA, just off Sunny Ridge Road in a thickly wooded area.  The cemetery measures 14x24 feet and was fenced with a board fence.  The area where the gate had been, was fallen down, but the rest was intact.

Joe Blackwell very kindly took us to this cemetery and assisted us in every way possible to get the readings from these graves.  Had he not gone with us, this cemetery would not have been recorded because we could not have found it.  Thanks, Joe!
