Part of the road was closed many years ago, isolating the old Shutters cabin.. The old cabin has fallen down and decayed and I don't know what condition the cemetery is in.. To get to the cemetery and cabin site you have to walk about 1/2 mile off Childress Hollow Rd. (rt 614).. There was a Breckinridge farm on Rt 633 (Black Hollow Rd) about 1/4 mile west of the Heavenly Rest Church.. I believe the Breckinridge and Shutters lands may have joined.. This may be the family you are looking for, I'm not sure. You can see a picture of the old Shutters Cabin on my website at: http://hearlshill.freeservers.com/index.html The "Scenes" Page contains thirty pictures so give it a few minutes to download. (usually about four minutes) Everyone is invited to take a Look! Hope this helps, G. Lee Hearl Authentic Appalachian Storyteller Abingdon, Va.

I have a photo of my grandparents, Henry and Nannie Thomas Shutters, and their children, taken about 1915 with the following notation on the reverse side: "Made in Schoolfield, VA, 1915, after we moved there from the Breckeridge Place near Grandmother near Wyndale VA and Abingdon, VA." Can anyone give me definite directions on where this might be located? Thanks very much. Allyne Holland

Our direct ancestors moved on to Claiborne TN in the early 1800s, then to Iowa around 1850 Any suggestions for local resources we should be sure to take advantage of?
