The Rappahannock Historical Society is interested in Hough’s work.
“Any new information found by Mr. Hough would be of interest to us to embellish our files,” said Judy 'Rile of the historical society
Tole said the society provided Thieriot with information on the cemetery when she bought the property She said the cemetery was visited before 1989.
“Only four tombstones could be read at the time since it was so overgrown and many stones were barely visible and were mostly handcarved fieldstones that could not be completely read,” she said.
The historical society has had a cemetery project for many years headed by Misty Hitt Wright. Over 500 cemeteries have been identified in the county with over 11 residents in those cemeteries.
“Anyone interested in information on any cemeteries in the county are welcome to visit the EHS and peruse our files, many with pictures,” said Tole.
The hope is that the historic graveyard and possible earlier burial grounds might gain recognition by the National Register of Historic Places or other groups that can protect the area from future development.
