GREENE COUNTY VIRGINIA GRAVEYARD SURVEY
We are very happy to report that Volume I and Volume II of the Graveyard Survey
in Greene County, Virginia are available for review and purchase. Editors are:
Eugene D. Powell, Earl W. Estes, Jr., & Alice S. Estes.
Surveys of family graveyards in these book were compiled primarily
by Earl Estes, Jr. with the help of a variety of individuals,
in particular Roger Powell, Eugene Powell, Galen Morris, Nelson Lamb,
Benjamin Sims, Don Covey, Richard Early, Sylvia Jones, Howard Herring,
and Barbara Zorn. The Society and community as a whole owe a debt of
gratitude to these individuals for the arduous and tedious work that
they performed over a number of years.
