Re: Burial Thornrose Cemetery

Thornrose cemetery has records of those Confederates buried there. Give them a call @ 540-886-8241. They will allow the flat stones only, no uprights. The charge several years ago was $ 100. I had a stone installed for a soldier from Brunswick County, Virginia, Jones Clary. I have since visited and seen how and where the stone was placed and am NOT satisfied at all. It looks like the few that has been placed were all started in one corner of the section and are all shoved right together like patio pavers, with no space in between them. I have never taken the time to complain, as I don't know if it would help. The cemetery is located at 1041 West Beverly Street, Staunton, VA 24401.
