Virginia Beach, Va., Cemeteries
Per http://www.pagh.pillars.net/ Unmarked cem near N.E cor West Neck Rd. & Princess Anne Rd. Previous City Property map showed church property extending from West Neck Road to Princess Anne Rd. in an "L" shape. It also showed a small rectangle on the leg extending to P.A. Rd.
I was told that the rectangle was a slave cemetery, but that it was unmarked. I didn't see it myself Apparently it has been re subdivided and I suspect the cem has been ignored. This needs to be investigated, with former plats found in the deed room. I'm concerned that development will obliterate the site. 2nd:
This needs further investigation
