Scott
County Virginia Compiled
by Phyllis Louise Peterson
Scott Co. has
only two death record books which is in very poor condition and hard to
read, ranging only a few years. Thus making this collection of cemetery
records a valuable supplement.
Now available are 6 volumes of cemetery coverage and a Master Index. Each volume begins with a series of maps showing the location of all these cemeteries. The readings follow and they are arranged by the map sequence. Included for each cemetery are the names of readers and the dates of the readings, locations, names of the interred, vital dates, inscriptions, and notes by the readers giving conditions of stones or additional information from other sources. There are many relationships listed on the inscriptions, the military affiliations, and the large amount of additional material added by the readers making this listing a special value.
They not only cover the cemeteries in Scott Co, but overlaps across the county border, extending the family lines that are just outside of Scott Co. Those areas are; Lee Co., Washington Co., Russell Co. Va., Hancock Co. and Hawkins Co. Tenn. The set contains 1,060 cemetery listings along with locations of 75 others. Each volume is completely indexed. Cemetery Records
