Directions from Elkview: 119W towards Clendenin (7.1 mi), turn right onto French St. (0.1 mi), turn left onto Walnut St. (0.0 mi), turn left onto Kanawha Ave. W. (0.0 mi), follow to Koontz Cemetery Rd.(on right) and follow up hill to cemetery.

This cemetery was taken over by the city of Clendenin approx. 1939 and records prior to that date are sketchy at best. Cemetery is very well maintained.

I walked this cemetery several times beginning 2004 to acquire pictures of family members headstones and it escalated from there. This list is compiled from pictures I took, Koontz Cemetery Listing from the Mayor's Office, and from Kanawha County Cemeteries Book VI Compiled by WV Genealogy Society, Inc. June 2006.

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.
