Independence Cemetery

Grayson County, Virginia

Location: Independence

Directions: From Main St (US 58) just west of North Independence Ave (US 21) turn right into the Independence Methodist Church parking lot and drive behind the church.

GPS Coordinates: N36.623166 W81.154642

Surveyed by: Ginger Ballard Apr 2003; updated Aug 2008 by Gil Wetmore.

Comments: This cemetery is fairly well maintained although several stones have fallen and a few are broken. Some flat markers are in danger of disappearing and death dates on some upright markers are below ground. There are an indeterminate number of unmarked graves at this site.

The Independence Cemetery is divided into a North and South section. The North Section is listed first below. This is the older part of the cemetery. The newer South Section is nearer the church and has a loop access road around it.
