Pleasant View Cemetery
Pettyville, Wood County, West Virginia

Lat: 39° 12' 27"N, Lon: 81° 34' 37"W

Contributed by Teresa Fordyce, Apr 21, 2003, last edited Aug 17, 2007 [s82c43@verizon.net]. Total records = 266.

Take Pike Street (Rt. 14 South) out of South Parkersburg toward Mineral Wells. Pike Street turns into Rt. 14 South at the City limit. Follow Rt. 14 South for about 3 to 4 miles to Lost Pavement Road. Turn right onto Lost Pavement and travel about 5 miles to Pleasant Hill Road, which is the next left after the Pleasant View Baptist Church. The Cemetery sits to the left at the top of the hill.

This Cemetery is owned and well maintained by the Pleasant View Baptist Church. Some of the stones are very worn, and dates should be verified with other sources.

I walked through and transcribed the stones in this cemetery on Mar 15, 2003.
