Old Cemeteries Lure Visitors In Cross Junction VA
Mrs Ammanda Crossen recalls a paired visit with Floyd Luttrells to two historic churches near Cross Junction. At Old Stone Church founded 1820 and rebuilt 1933, grounds, monuments and a missionary stone from Africa are described, plus reflections on its view and gardens. The second stop was Old Chapel near Boyce, established 1773, with a graveyard of figures linked to early U.S. history, including Bishop Meade and General Meade, and a notable mammay stone. The account notes iron gates honoring Benjamin Harrison and a 103 year old organ, ending with a picnic beside a spring.
