Small Unknown Cemetery in Keswick, part of Castleton Development, Virginia Beach, VA

 

Lonely Cemetery
in Virginia Beach
Castleton Development

The following is a listing of the 14 stones found in a very small cemetery in the Castleton Development, Keswick section, in Virginia Beach, VA. I am told that part of the agreement when the land was sold for development, was that the developer/builder keep these stones intact, and well tended. They are doing so, and the fence is also well-kept. I have two sets of prints of these stones, and am willing to send them to descendants for postage costs. No further information can be found at this time. If you have any information that can be added, feel free to write me : a3f40p at cox dot net (that is a number zero).
