The First Cemetary I surveyed on a trip to Virgina and then sumbitted to Rootsweb for free genealogy.
The second cemetary and all the information is one I found on the internet. I take no credit for the information of the second cemetary. Just want to share all I know with my fellow cousins.
============================================
PUCKETT CEMETERY,
Dickenson County VA
State
Route 80 to State
Route 616 in
Dickenson County Virginia. On
Puckett Ridge.
The condition of this cemetery was very disappointing. Half the stones are erased. My 2nd cousins were nice enough to show me where the cemetery was and to take their weed wacker.
I don't claim to be an expert in genealogy.
The information below is not guaranteed.
If you have a dircect line to these Pucketts and need a correction. Please do not email me for corrections.
Post your correction to this message in a new post at this board. That way everyone can read, and we can all get it right.
