Mary Sue Mounlio another cousin and I rode through there in October 2021. We were looking for the Varney cemetery and never saw a side street or anything. Just a little store. Does the cemetery exist there or how to you get to anywhere ?

Raymond C Knight Sr Cemeteries in this area are most often not marked or called by some other name. My husband has a map (he works for a coal company) and they have to have a list of them. If I can find it, I’ll let you know.

Both my grandmas were Varneys. I know one great grandfather was John. Not recalling the other right now.
Is the familial connection to the Hatfields through the Varneys?
If so, I need to do some digging.

Debbie Land It's has been 5 years now, I lost my wife is it sure he doesn't get any easier The fact she passed away from car accident was the only way If that wasn't hard enough the guilt I feel not able to help her win her battle I still don't know how to look at my life without seeing an inescapable absence I feel like I died too and they just forgot to bury me, some things cannot be fixed there is a hole in the world which I find myself I wish I had someone who cares someone to talk to about my grief and my days I have never experienced anything like it before but this has hit me like a ton of bricks miss her so much the pain is awful Hope you don't mind click on my profile and send me a direct message so that we can talk on Messenger or adding me as a friend on facebook
