Land owner: privately owned
Date added to WVCPA register: October 2002
Condition of cemetery**: Excellent (June 2007)
Accessibility: From Pt. Pleasant take Rt. 2 East to Rt. 62 South, proceeding through the towns of Leon and Arbuckle to Tribble Rd. which will be on the left side of Rt. 62, a convenience store and gas station will be at the corner of Tribble and Rt. 62, turn left and go out five miles, more or less on Tribble Rd. You will pass the new Wolfe Valley Church on the left, cross the bridge over Thirteenmile Creek, and take the next left (Cabin Ridge Road). The cemetery is a short distance up the hill on your right. It is located near the site of the old Cloverdale school. Parking is limited to alongside the gravel road, a road that sees a fair amount of traffic, so use caution. On the upper end of the cemetery there is a "Y" in the road - both forks of the road have regular traffic, so be careful not to block either one. However, it is at this end of the cemetery where you have the better chance of finding a spot to park as much off the road as possible.

** Condition of cemetery as observed on the given date -
may not be representative of care at other times of the year
Scale: Excellent - Good - Fair - Poor - Abandoned
