    1. [WVWEBSTE] CHESTNUT GROVE CEMETERY
    2. Linda Archie
    3. Tom, According to Stanley Anderson's "Cemeteries of Northern Webster County": This is the largest cemetery in Northern Webster County. It is located on the Replete Road on the hill above the Chestnut Grove United Methodist Church. The cemetery road is good and is passible most of the year by two-wheel vehicles. A trust fund has been established for the cemetery assuring perpetual care. There is a new cyclone fence around the area. The cemetery is well maintained and is in excellent condition. The land containing this cemetery has been in the Jordan family for around 150 years. A few years ago the land was deeded by Elba and Mary Robinson to the trustees of the cemetery. A large oak tree stands in the southeast corner. According to Wade K. Jordan this is an original landmark corner. He requested that it never be cut. Sorry - I don't have directions for getting there from Clarksburg. Hope this helps. Linda
