Berkley/Smith Cemetery and Henderson/Johns Cemetery submitted by Kathy Liston 1 Mar 2005

Berkley/ Smith Cemetery – located in field on the south side of Staunton Hill Rd. (route 619), just east of Red Hill Rd. (route 677).

This cemetery contains at least 30-40 graves, some unmarked, some marked with blank fieldstones, and two with modern stones placed by fraternal organizations. Other than the two carved stones, I have no idea who is buried here, and I know nothing about the history of the property or the people buried there. Among the graves is an enormous English boxwood and some of the largest American box trees I have ever seen.

Henderson/ Johns Cemetery – located down the hill in the trees on the north side of Staunton Hill Rd. (route 619), 1 8/10ths miles west of Terrell Rd. (route 693); 3/10ths miles west of Dunkley Lane.

This African-American cemetery contains a large number of graves some marked with blank fieldstones, some unmarked, and two with carved stones. Other than the two carved stones, I have no idea who is buried here, and I know nothing about the history of the property or the people buried there.

CASSADA

Provided by Dee Cassidy Smith 7-13-98 I have been searching for the grave of Elisha Cassada/Cassidy b. 1828 in Halifax Co, married and lived in Charlotte Co. most of his life, and was living near Wyliesburg in 1909 when he was 81 and applied for his Civil War pension. Older family members remember visiting the gravesite on a farm near rt. 360 in the 1940's but we have been unable to locate it. In my search, I recently found an old Cassada family cemetery on a farm. My ancestor's grave was not there (or not marked) but these were descendants of Elisha's brother, Oliver. To my knowledge, this information has not been documented anywhere. Perhaps this may help others. The family cemetery is on the property of Grover Lacks near Clover. It is located off of Rt.360. It is reached by taking Rt. 608 to Rt. 810 then following it to the end and continuing on a dirt road. Cemetery is on the left a short way on the dirt road. It is fenced in. There are 6 graves that have tombstones. There are about 24 that are marked with white stones. The 6 marked are: James H. Cassada 1849-1950 (HandCarved) My Mother Dead but not forgotten Jennie Cassada died Apr 21 1942 made by O.V. Cassada May 4 194? Noel W. Cassada Jr. Apr 20 1952 Aug 7 1970 Ruby Evelyn Cassada Nov 22 1925 Jan 11 1997 Emett G. Cassada 1900-1958 Cassada Essie Q Olivine Mar 31 1892 June 29 1890 Dec 13 1959 Oct 21 1959 Mother Father

HARVEY

Provided by Ellen Bailey 19 Feb 1999 I tried to find Harvey family tombstones over 3 trips to around Charlotte Court House. The only ones I finally found were behind a private home off Rte. 665 N. of CCH. They were: Isham Harvey Born 1790 Died 1864; In Memoriam Addie B. Harvey Infant daughter of EC and MH Harvey Born March 5 l864 Died May 30, 1864 age 15 mos; In Memory of Nathan T. Harvey eldest son of EC and MJ Harvey Born Oct 26 1858, died Feb 25 1864, age 5 yrs 4 mos; Father Thomas Harvey 1801-1873; ME(F?) H D 1845 or 1895 (the 4 was reversed). The little plot had not been maintained and there were suspicious huge holes made by animals, perhaps some of the graves have caved into the holes.
