Prospect Hill Cemetery
Washington County, Maryland

536 Prospect Hill Road, Knoxville Maryland

Lat: 39° 19' 48"N, Lon: 77° 41' 48"W

From the intersection of Keep Tryst Road and Highway 340, turn on Keep Tryst Road and go east .5 miles until you hit Prospect Hill Road. Turn there and go north for 1 block. The cemetery is on the east side of the road.

A very old cemetery, with headstones dating back to the 1820's. The cemetery is being mowed, however some of the headstones are faded and broken. I am told this is called the Virts Cemetery, but I have found no proof as yet.
