Robert L Perry Cemetery, Fred Weaver Rd, Alleghany N.C.
The Robert L. Perry cemetery is located in Alleghany County, North Carolina. I visited there myself in August of 1996 and copied names and dates from the legible stones. I have clear photographs of some. The cemetery is located on Fred Weaver Road off 113 via 1300. If you park at the old campground it is a short walk to the trail to the top of the hill. The trail is marked by an old cable stretched across it, but easily crossed. The directions from the Alleghany cemetery listings state that it is on the left, toward the mouth of the creek. It is opposite the creek and other small family cemeteries are along this road, some well hidden from the road by the woods. You cross the cable and follow the path to the top of the hill, The graveyard was well tended , fenced, and mown on my last visit. This includes all the legible names that were found there.

Two of the stones contained no name, but included the following dates:
stone 1 b. 9-10-1909 d. 9-10-1909
stone 2 b. 9-10-1907 d. 10-31-1907
Numerous other UNMARKED or ILLEGIBLE gravestones are present. Mary E. and William E. are identified as children of Hiram and Sarah Perry. The "?" in JW's record simply means I couldn't clearly read that part of the date.
