Preservation Virginia introduces a great interactive public map where anyone can record the location of historic family cemeteries. Users can add placemarkers and describe cemeteries for others to see.
Note: Marking a family cemetery on this Google map does not ensure that the cemetery is recorded in DHR's Archives. For official recording, use the Citizen Cemetery Recordation Form and submit it to DHR Archives.
