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.

From Tombstone Inscriptions of the Cemeteries of Patrick County, Virginia--Located on the ridge of Poor Mountain, near Smith River, not far from Philpott Lake. There are several graves with crude stones an no inscriptions. There is another cemetery nearby on a high knoll in this area which contains at least 12 graves with crude stones and no inscriptions. The locals refer to it as a Moran Cemetery.

This cemetery is in a very remote area of Patrick County, Virginia. In fact, it is the most remote cemetery that we have found in Patrick County yet. This cemetery is ONLY accessible by land via four wheeler as you have to climb multiple mountain ridges before you get to it. You also have to cross multiple bodies of water and if you go in the wrong way, you would have to swim across the Smith River which is not advisable in that area due to currents. Puppy Creek also winds and bends through that area as well as it is wide close to the river. If you map it, it is about 1.82 miles from the highway but it is much further as you have to take four wheeler trails to get to it and you really have to know where you are going.

You may also access this cemetery via boat from the Smith River. The river lies 345 meters to the northeast of this cemetery.
