Mount Olive Cemetery
Centerville, Goochland County, Virginia

To reach this cemetery, take I-64 west to Exit 173 (Manakin, Rockville) and turn left onto Ashland Road. At the stoplight at the intersection of Ashland Road and Broad Street, turn right. Drive for about .5 miles and turn left onto Manakin Road (Route 621). Drive for about a mile, and when you pass Three Chopt Road you'll see the church up ahead on the right side of the road.

I'm not sure how old this cemetery is, but a lot of the burials seem to be within the last 20 years or so. It's maintained by the Mount Olive Baptist Church and is in fair condition. The cemetery is located to the west side of the church, back near the edge of the woods.

This is a complete list of all burials as of Apr 10, 2007, when I went there to read the stones. There were three spots that were marked with flowers, but no names were visible near them.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
