Accessibility: | The cemetery is located up 5 & 20 Mile Creek Road (CR 15) south southeast of Frazier's Bottom. Follow Rt. 15 for 3.2 miles from highway 35 (soon to be "old" 35, when the new highway is completed!), then turn left onto Rt. 13. Cross a low water bridge and stay on Rt. 13, for about 8 tenths of a mile total from the turn off of Rt. 15, past the intersection of Rt.13/7. The cemetery is located on high point above the old Davis home there. It is a very, very steep climb up the hill - not easily accessible. | |

Possible Burials, based on WV death records: | ||||||
Davis | William Richard | 5 April 1865 | 6 April 1940 | [Per death certificate, buried in "home cemetery" - being the son of Allen & Emmeline Davis, and his father Allen is buried here, so there's a good chance this is the "home cemetery"] |
