Greetings The Halifax County Cemetery books give scant information on locations of the cemeteries listed. Someone has been kind enough to take the time to send me instructions on how to reach the Oakland Cemetery in Scottsburg, Va (the books only provide it's location as Scottsburg, Va .) I think this is a great idea for those wishing to know more precisly where a cemetery of interest to them is located, and if they wish, directions on how to get there. The directions sent to me follow: ------------------------------------------------------------- Heading east from state route 360 towards Scottsburg on state route 344 you drive through the town and as you exit the town you take the left fork, state route 720. Oakland Cemetery is just a short distance out of town and is on the left side of the road. The entrance is marked by 2 brick pillars. The left has a stone with the cemetery name and the year 1894. The right pillar has the names of the founders. ---------------------------------------------------- I think this is a great idea ! With this in mind I am asking any of you guys that have knowledge of directions to reach any of the Cemeteries in Halifax County, Va. to send them to me, and I will try to preserve them for those who need the info now or in the future. I will post the cemeteries 10 at a time for a short while to see if it works. If you or someone you know can give directions to any of them, please send the directions to me. If the idea dies, I tried. First 10 Cemeteries.
