Cemetery | Sellers Cemetery |
Location | Melrose Caverns, Rockingham County, Virginia. From Harrisonburg, Virginia, take Route 11 north (North Valley Pike) to Route 721 (Fellowship Road). Turn right. Travel about 1/2 mile to Country Boy Lane and turn right. This is a dirt/gravel lane next to old house that is facing Route 721. The cemetery is located towards the end of this lane. |
Notes | Enclosed and overgrown. In 2011 and 2008 no attempt was made to record/photograph this cemetery, as it was overgrown. Many of the headstones were moved to Fellowship UM Church Cemetery but believe the remains are still located in this cemetery. |
