Barbara,I think I talked to you before,I was wondering if you were the one who went to the old Hall homestead on Millstone RD The farm now owned by Edwards,I was just there last summer,And Mr Edwards son told me that nothing of the cemetery was left,there had been two cemeteries there at one time,but 1 was moved to Beale Chapel cemetery,He also told me there was only 1 headstone that was found there and it was for a Withers,But I know this to be wrong because my father was Wilbert L Hall and my grandfather farmed this farm before leaving WV,My dad said there were many stones there at one time,It is weird all these stones are now gone.I also found info from the death cert of my ggrandfather Andrew J Hall's first wife,Adelaide Bias Hall Adelaide died on the Hall farm there in May 19 1899,And I feel that Jubal Hall some refer to as Joseph Hall was also buried there with his wife Louisa Legg Hall,Some say Juble first name was Joseph but on his son Andrews death cert it is only listed as father Juble Hall,I have never found it anywhere listed as Joseph,I have some new info on this line as if you want contact me,Lois Hall Downour

Lois,I tried to send a picture that we took of the area.The cattle had destroyed any sign of headstones.I hope you got the picture .I would love to have your new informaton on the Halls.I do wish we could find who move one of the cemeteries to Beale,maybe they could tell us the location in the Beale cemetery.It has to be in the bock of the new part,but they didn't mark the area.It seems such a shame..

Barb,I did some checking with the care taker of Beale years ago plus alot of my family is buried there in the old and new section,From what all I have been told alot of cemeteries were moved there and not any of the people who even with proof of them being buried in these cems has shown up at Beale as they were supose to.I was told many years ago by a worker from Beale that alot of the stones were just lined up across the back of the fence at Beale.I saw this myself even when I was very young and before starting genealogy,So I know he was speaking the truth,After I did start genealogy I went to search these stones,but most dates and names were unreadable and alot of the stones that were there were missing,Even if the stones fell over or broke,why wasnt the grave recorded or there?,Also another researcher I know very well was hunting for the Mayes/Maze/Mayse cemetery that at one time was close to the goodyear tire plant,When the plant was built,Again we were told it was moved to Beale Chapel,But none who were buried in this cem were at Beale as we were told either,Makes you wonder if what happened at Pleasant Ridge didnt also happen at Beale,People were being buried on top of where other people were suposedly buried,My mother and I went in 1970's to see her baby brother's grave, He was buried at Pleasant Ridge,Sometime around 1912,But a new grave was where it should have been,That is when we talked to the care taker there,He said they had buried people on top of people,So we never were able to find him again.I also tried several times to contact anyone from Beale to get a cemetery reading.But no one was willing to talk about it.But I dont think none of the graves that were said to have been moved to Beale ever really got moved,if they did it was just the headstones and they were never put on a grave as they should have been,So we most likely won't ever fine them now,Contact me I had my email changed,its fredandlois@localnet.com Lois
