Greetings one and all, I went out and checked out the Funk Family Cemetery at Camp Rim Rock. Took a couple of photos and read all the tombstones. So you will see that update on the webpage today. Tomorrow, I plan on running over to Junction and finding the Davy Family Cemetery. Hampshire County has it's annual 23rd Heritage Days scheduled for Saturday and Sunday: Sep 7-8, 2002. There will be tours to 6 sites: Laurel Hill UM Church; Peacemaker House; Denton House; Prysbyterian Cemetery in Bloomery; Bloomery Iron Furnace; and the Omps Grocery Store, where they will have refreshments. Have a great night, and I will write more tomorrow. Wayne of Capon Bridge did some traveling around the county today and added a few cemeteries to the list. I left Capon Bridge about 9 in the morning and headed to Junction in the western part of the county. Making a left down Rt 220 and then a left onto Trinity Rd (220/11). I travelled to the end of the road and found the John Pancake home. John was very helpful in find the cemeteries along Trinity. He showed me the Indian mound above his house and told me of the family tradition of it. Also from the road by the Indian mound, you can see off into the distance across the valley/river about 3 or 4 miles away, as the crow flies, the Pancake Cemetery. Does anyone out there know how to identify Indian mounds? I have see mounds covered with dirt and others covered with rocks. Would they be of different tribes or what? Any ideas. Next I was told of the Davy's Cemetery. I never found it, but later in my daily travels I did find out that I passed by it, but just didn't go up the right road. This cemetery was near the Forest Hill School. I will go to this cemetery in the next few day. Next I talked to a Frank McDonald and he told me of the small Taylor Cemetery on the William's farm. I also heard that at one time some individual had stolen the oldest stone from the cemetery, but it was recovered and placed back at the grave site. I was also told of the Sines farm having a cemetery on it. I didn't find that one other, but know where it is. I will also go to this one in the next few days also. Finally, I took a photo and names of the Parker Cemetery along Rt. 50 just west of Romney. Today I only got to a 10th of the cemeteries that I wanted to. I met many people today with nice long stories and plenty of help. I also learned of several unmarked gravesites at "Tom's Cabin", where ever that is. I'm sure I will never be able to find that on my own, but that Frank McDonald might take me there. So let's start a tread on the Indian Mound and how to locate or identify them.
