Research Notes

Aside from the cemetery category (which does not have a Virginia counterpart), West Virginia categories were edited or removed since she died before 1863 (when 50 Virginia counties were admitted to the Union as West Virginia).^[1] Category: Appalachia, Virginia was deleted - the category is for a city that was established in 1898 in Wise County, Virginia.
