Hoover Family Cemetery 1. Using J. Robert Swank's records of 1967, cemetery was revisited & recorded.

Cemetery Notes

Cemetery is clean & on private property. Need permission to get to it. In 1967 J. Robert Swank noted "Cemetery on the Raymond Hoover farm. There may be as many as 20 additional graves, unmarked. Plot grazed and clean. Showalter Atlas of 1939 states Jacob Hoover settled on 625 acres along the Shenandoah River 2 miles below Timberville. Also mentions Emanuel & Annie Clive Hoover."

Near Timberville, Rockingham County, Virginia. From Harrisonburg take Route 42 north to Timberville. Stay on Route 42 through Timberville & turn right onto Route 211 (New Market Road). Go about 3.1 miles & cemetery is off to the left. It is not visible from the road. It is 0.2 mile off the road through a field & then crossing a creek bed. It is located on the Shenandoah River bank.
