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.

A church was formed in April 1902 in what was known as Rabbit Hollow. The church is now extinct. On September 21, 1920 the church cemetery was sold and renamed Adams Chapel Cemetery. Since 1922, no one took care of the cemetery.
Raleigh Worsham, of Lynchburg, Va., took an interest in the cemetery in 2011. He hired people to clean the cemetery and restore it. All of the graves were found and a marker was put on the ones that had no headstone. Unfortunatelly no one knew who was buried in the graves. However they were all marked. He restored the headstones that were there.
He then fenced in the area and paid someone to cut the grass for years.
Now since 2017, someone at the Wesleyan Church on Amherst Avenue and 9th Street is cutting the grass.
