Edgewood
Cemetery is located southwest of Grottoes on the Rockfish Road, directly across
the road from the Mount Horeb Presbyterian Church. A second cemetery, herein
called the Old Cemetery, lies on the same side of the road as the church and
just south of it. Edgewood is a beautiful cemetery with ten acres of land and
over 1200 interments.
Ownership
of burial spaces is open to the public at a cost of $400.00 each. Perpetual
care is provided as a part of the cost of burial spaces. Unlike the area's
"for profit" cemeteries,. the erection of headstone monuments is also
allowed (with certain restrictions). Interested
parties should contact Edgewood's manager, Mr.
Rufus Powers, (540) 249 5403.
This
information was provided by Mr. Powers, who worked diligently to computerize and
refine these records and continues to provide regular updates. The records of
those interred are being provided to enable visitors to our website to search
for the resting place of their ancestors and relatives as they traverse the
branches of their family tree.
