For several years now the Campbell County Historical Society (CCHS) has been trying to locate and survey ALL cemeteries, church, family and public that are located in Campbell County. Once enough of the survey's have been done they have been combined into books that are currently offered for sale by the Society. In doing our research we have ran across several obituaries that refer to specific cemeteries that we have NOT been able to locate. I have created this site in hopes that someone will recognize some of the names and be able to help us locate and survey these elusive cemeteries. If anyone has any knowledge of any of these individuals that could lead to their burial site PLEASE email me with the details.
