Ampthill Plantation Cemeteries,
 Chesterfield County, VA
Tombstone Photographs


Photos and info in this section of the archives were submitted by:
Gene Toler (gt)

NOTE: These photos  are of all the  identifiable gravesites in the Watkins & Temple Cemeteries located on the
Old Ampthill Plantation - Now the Spruance Plant Site - E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company, Inc.
5401 Jefferson Davis Highway, Richmond, Chesterfield County, Virginia 23234. There are other graves
in these cemeteries, but I have not been able to identify them because, in some cases, there are no markers
or are just rocks and I have not been able to locate any other documentation.
