NOTE: These photos  are of all the  identifiable gravesites in the Temple Cemetery 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 the cemetery, 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.
