I would be most interested in knowing about the Porter cemetery as I visited it several years ago. (We had planned to buy the land and house but life happens.) I found it very unsettling that so many children were buried there. Do you know why the children died? Any info would settle my curiosity.

A handy tool for finding cemeteries is TopoQuest (USGS topographic maps). The Dungannon quad lists 2 Ramey cemeteries in the area to which Warren is referring: http://www.topoquest.com/map-detail.php?usgs_cell_id=13052 or, a search for Ramey shows 7 cems. in VA, 6 of which are in Russell / Scott / Wise / Buchanan: http://www.topoquest.com/find/place.php?state=VA&search_type=contains&name=Ramey&class=cemetery

      Hi Sharon,  I think there is a Cemetery up on  " The Ridge Road " , which is about 3 hundred yards past / from the Scott & Russell County Line ( in Russell County) in The Sinkin' Community. Now I do not remember exactly where it is.        I think You go up the Mountain on " The Ridge Road " it is back in there about a mile, possibly as many as 4 miles up in there. If I remember right, it is off the Road a little ways, but I just can't tell You how far or exactly where !!  ??      If You go looking, Please stop & ask someone for help & directions !!     I also do know where there is another Cemetery, actually I know of 4 Cemeteries within 1 mile of each other there in The Sinkin' Creek Community .    3 of them are in in Scott County, & 1 in Russell County.       There is The  " Porter Cemetery ", which has also been called  " The Nash Porter Cemetery ".  This one is located on The Doc Porter, later Paul Porter Farm, about 3 quarters to a mile from the Scott Russell County Line.  My Great Grandmother Laura E. (Porter) Nash & Her Husband Fleetwood G. Nash & some of Their Children are buried there.  This one is in Scott County.       Next there is The Keith Cemetery, it is about a Half mile from the County Line. In Scott County.       Next there is the Nash Family Cemetery, where My Grandfather, George Washington Nash is buried. This one is less than a quarter mile from the County Line. More like about an 8 Th of a mile.  This is also in Scott County.       Then the next one, I think it is a Ramsey Family Cemetery.  I am almost Positive that this is A Ramsey Family Cemetery.   This one is not a Ramey Cemetery !!!!   This Ramsey Cemetery is located about a half a mile into Russell County, From the Scott & Russell County Line.  It is up on a hill top going out of The Sinking Creek Valley. It is just before You start down from the cut gorge going toward Mew, Castlewoods, before the old Arvill Porter Gas Station / Store.         You will have to call Me on this one so I can explain it in more detail. My Phone No. is (313)   885-4238.   I hope all of this is aleast some help to You.        Thank You For the Info on Margaret Ramey !!!!!   I do have the same Info on this one, but She is not My Great Great Grandmother !  My Margaret Ramey was born 1804 or 1809 not sure of the date, there is two dates that some of Us argue about. Well anyway She had My Great Grandmother, Louisa Jane Nash, Dec. 28, 1839. This Margaret Ramey is buried in The Nash Family Cemetery in Russell County at Nash's Ford near Cleveland, Va.                    GOD BLESS,                          WARREN --- On Fri, 4/16/10, speell <speell@windstream.net> wrote: From: speell <speell@windstream.net> Subject: Re: [VARUSSEL] Lost Cemetery To: varussel@rootsweb.com Date: Friday, April 16, 2010, 3:46 PM Hi Warren, Thank you.  It appears that the cemetery was very close to the Scott/Russell Co line -- an important clue.

My great grandpa and his toddler daughter both died in Wilder, Russel County in 1923.I have her death certificate, but not his-just his date of death. I don't know what cemetery they were buried in, and would like to know if someone with any books could look for me if you get some extra time. If so, please reply and I will send info. Thank you. Cathy

The headstones were Rameys, and I'm sure it was in Russell County. I'm not sure who all were buried there; I've only recently learned that there actually was a cemetery from an older family member and its location. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Rudder" <ruddert@sbcglobal.net> To: <varussel@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 3:59 PM Subject: Re: [VARUSSEL] Lost Cemetery > Whose gravestones are you looking for.
