Pierpont Cemetery
Monongalia County, West Virginia

Lat: 39° 39' 18"N, Lon: 79° 53' 24"W

Contributed by Sarah K. Holt, Jan 19, 2005 [sarahkholt@yahoo.com]. Total records = 226.

From Morgantown take US-119 North, turn right onto CR-857 N, then left onto CR-67/N Pierpont Rd/Old Cheat Rd. Cemetery is at intersection of CR-67 & CR-857 N./CR-73, on the east side.

The cemetery is well maintained by the county. The problem is, that the headstones are very worn, as they are white limestone and the cemetery sits on a hill that gets a lot of wind.

I transcribed this cemetery in Aug 2003 & Apr 2004. The information was compiled by all existing and legible tombstone inscriptions and double checking a previous transcription done for the County in the 1930's.
