Baird's Creek Cemetery

This cemetery is located back in the mountain, with Campbell County on one side & Scott County on the other side. I believe this cemetery would be located in Scott County. We got to this cemetery by driving to Newcomb in Campbell Co. & turning on Whistle Creek Road. Then we went up the mountain on this road & turned left on a dirt road that's probably called Baird's Creek Road. The road is rough in places and we went through several mud holes, but didn't have to use the 4-wheel drive gear. You can also get to this cemetery by going up Big Wheel Gap Road in Elk Valley, (also in Campbell Co.) but I believe the road is a lot rougher to go this way. There are several graves that have field stones, with no inscriptions. Notes in parenthesis are mine and not on the stone. If you have knowledge of anyone being buried in this cemetery, please email me at TNGirl@icx.net ~Bobbie Lewallen~
