As hard as we all try, we are human and sometimes
when reading a cemetery we miss a grave covered with leaves,
fireants, or bushes. Sometimes the headstone has sunk and is mostly underground.
Our area also
has many graves only marked with iron ore
rocks and even many unmarked graves. There are headstones
that have long ago been destroyed by the elements
or even vandalizm, and are hard to impossible to read
the details. We would appreciate it if you
would let us know if you did not find your relative which was buried
here, and would appreciate your letting us
use the information you know about them. With the combined
efforts of us all, we can make the Upshur
County website bigger and better.
