Jimmy Howery

 

Jimmy Howery spoke at the Floyd Rotary Club about the cleanup of four area cemeteries. In cleaning up the cemeteries with his wife and granddaughter, he found many grave stones that had fallen down and were buried in the overgrowth. Jimmy has been working on these family cemeteries since he retired from the Virginia State Police in 1996. The cemeteries are Pine Creek Cemetery, Slusher Cemetery, Cannaday’s Cemetery (in Endicott), and Camp Creek Cemetery. Genealogical information gathered from the grave stones has been given to the public library.
