Current Cemetery Projects

This fenced cemetery is on a private farm on Whitesides Lane in Cox's Creek. Elijah Stone's grave is here. He was born in 1825 and died in 1880. The Stone families are still residents of the Cox's Creek area in Nelson County. Stone family members are asked to join the Nelson County Cemetery Preservation Fund, Inc. and contribute to Family History Connections.

A large family cemetery fenced by a rock wall contains 45 graves with monuments from 1'x2' to over 30' high. The Montgomery family and their off spring lived in the Cox's Creek area in the 1800's.

This family cemetery is on a private farm off the end of T Hahn Road just east of New Salem Baptist Church on Deatsville Road in the Cox's Creek area. The graves were largely unmarked until the ground was explored and the volunteers found several buried headstones. Mary Brashear was the first wife of Alfred B. Brashear. When she died Alfred married Margaret Brashear and their off-spring of several generations still live in the Cox's Creek area.

The McCellan Cemetery is nothing but a field with a few headstones showing on the Jeanie Smith Farm. It will be cleared, tombstones uncovered, repaired, set on bases.
