Rebel, I need to get up your way and check this cemetery out. We have already found everything in Danville, Va. waiting on permission which may take a lot longer. I need to have a serious look around. I also need to read the City of Lynchburg Records. Can we get together in a couple of weeks or three? Albert

Thanks, Rebel. I look forward to searching the OCC with you. Have you searched the funeral records on line. They have James Beverly Ward buying the dress, coffin and other things for Sarah Morriss, Robert Morriss' wife. They also have the arrangements for James Beverly Risque. They don't however say where they are buried.

I'll introduce you to Mr. D; the archives at OCC may have the info; HE is in charge of 'em. ;D

;D Well, we DO know that JB Ward is buried on his grandfather's, JB Risque's HUNTER'S HILL Farm/Plantation near Dreaming Creek in Campbell County, Va. (south of Lynchburg, Va.). The area is HAUNTED by a TROLL (IRISH...?); hmmm... NOW! MORE about JBW; his father (Gile) married Adeline Eliza Risque (daughter of James Beverly Risque). James Beverly Ward married Harriet Emeline Otey & together had kids... JB Ward, Jr.; Adeline Virginia Ward; Ferdinand Kennerly Ward; Ella Risque Ward; John Gordon Ward; & Annie MORRISS Ward. GETS BETTER! James Beverly Risque had a duel with Thomas Beale, SR. Over Judy/Julia Hancock, kin to JOHN HANCOCK of the DOI; AND! James Beverly Risque was "Scottish", and his mother's name was Mary Talbot HANCOCK! BTW, JB Ward's mother, Adeline... inherited his grandfather's HUNTER'S Hill Farm/Plantation; THAT is why JB Ward is buried there!
