Eastview Cemetery is located on highway W45 at the end of High Street. Going east on High Street it dead ends at the Eastview Cemetery. When I was a kid it wasn’t called W45, it was just a gravel road in those days. On the map it shows US45 west, but the name is Miles Avenue, named after Mayor Miles who was mayor back the 30’s.

One of the most honored sons of Union City was Congressman Robert Ashton Everett whose grave is just inside on the right of the main entrance.

If you have additional readings of this cemetery and want them added to this list, contact me.
I wonder if one of you fine folks might be able to help me track down some information. I’ve looked on BillionGraves.com and FindAGrave.com to locate information on my uncle and aunt, but am coming up (almost) empty. According to the VA, Edwin Lynn Wright is buried in East View Cemetery, but there are no images of the headstone for confirmation, nor is there any reference to his wife, who pre-deceased him in 1996. Is there any chance that one of you can confirm the VA information (at your leisure)? Thanks for your consideration; Glenn Wright, son of Edwin’s twin brother, Erwin.
They are buried at eastview. Who was your father? I am the son of Edwin and Phyllis
Apparently the email with your response didn’t reach him.
This is Glenn’s brother Richard responding.
Our father was Erwin. He was your father’s twin brother.
I apparently wasn’t notified of your reply (so I wonder if you’ll even see this.) I’m the son of your Dad’s twin brother, as stated in my post.
