CARROLL - VARNER GRAVEYARD

Another graveyard visited was about a half mile farther
around the ridge which separates the right fork of
Briscoe's from Big Run.  It is of irregular shape, and
perhaps about 4 x 6 rods in area.  There are a good many
modest markers, but nothing attempting elaborateness
or display.  The graves are all comparatively recent.  I did
not note any dates much further back than 1900.  No dates
were copied.  The names noticed were Carroll, Varner, and
Hileman.

The burial ground is in good repair, and it is probably a
family or private cemetery.  There are four large cedar
trees, indicating the use of the ground for burial purposes
many years earlier than the dates shown.  It lies on a gentle
slope on the southwestern side of the road, just beyond an
elevation, and a big walnut tree stands sentinel just across
the eastern fence.
