FORT ASHBY CEMETERY

The original survey of the Fort Ashby Cemetery was performed by the Conservation Corp during the depression. The survey created included those buried up to about 1935 in what is now Section A, B and C. See the map of the cemetery for sections. (The original cemetery survey is transcribed in black font).
Section A of this cemetery was updated by Ron McAvoy, his daughter Mary and Betty Dzubba. (Their transcriptions are designated in Green Font).
Section B-West was updated by Bill Pyles and his grandson, Chris Marshall. (Their transcriptions are designated in red font).
We would appreciate volunteers to inventory the burials in another section of the cemetery. While every effort has been made for accuracy, we know there may be mistakes.
In about 1950, an individual removed many monuments in the southern section of both B-East and B-West sections of the cemetery in order to eridicate saplings. Many monuments were not replaced and there location or that of the graves is unknown.
