John Westley United Methodist Episcopal Church Old Cemetery
Rock Mt. Lane & Pt. Lookout Rd.
Harriston, Virginia 

Compiled by Joe Nutt-November 28, 2000

The cemetery is located three-tenths of a mile east of U.S. 340
(East Side Hwy) just southeast of juntion of the Rock Mt. Lane
and Point Lookout Rd. A school at this juntion, identified on the 
1884 Hotchkiss map as "Belvidere School House #25 (Col)." just 
west of the cemetery, served as the first church for the John Wesley 
congregation, according to a former church member Herbert-Casey. The
cemetery, located just east of the school-church, is in a wooded area,
which obscures some of the gravesites, of which there appear to be many 
unmarked. The building has long-since disappeared. The markers we could 
find include:
