About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This is a small family cemetery on a private farm located about four miles south of Providence Forge near the Chickahominy River.

A map of 1863 New Kent County Land Owners and Plantations shows a plantation named "Roper Neck" owned by an Elijah Ball. This plantation is located on the North bank of the Chickahominy between Providence Forge and Windsor Shades. "Windsor Shades", incidentally, is shown as another Elijah Ball plantation.

There is one single monument with several names inscribed. Also inscribed is "Erected 1906." No other markers are evident on the surface. These names match those appearing in the list of work orders of J. HENRY BROWN MONUMENTS, INC, which records can be found through the Library of Virginia. Joan Renfrew has contributed to USGENWEB an index for the first three volumes of the order books covering years 1899-1907. More details are available in the original documents.
