Cemetery notes and/or description:
This cemetery is separate from all other "Hatfield" family cemeteries in 
Cabell County, West Virginia.
  
From "History of the Mose Hatfield Family: complete to 1940" by Tina 
(Hatfield) Ashworth, an unpublished family history I found in the 
Hinchman Family Collection in Special Collections at Marshall University 
in Huntington, WV.
"Capt. Hatfield and his wife were buried on the inside bend of the river, 
where it makes a sharp turn to the West. Time and flood have erased 
nearly all trace of their graves."
  
From Barboursville- drive approximately 6 miles South on McComas Road 
going toward Salt Rock. Turn right onto Roach Road. You will immediately 
come upon a bridge crossing the Guyan river. After you cross the bridge, 
as you come off the other side, you will see a brick house and driveway 
on your right. As you turn into the driveway, it will split and you bear 
to the right. You will then turn to the left onto another gravel 
driveway. Follow it to the end (about 1/10 mile) to the brown doublewide 
home. This is part of the old Frye farm. Please ask permission of the 
homeowner before proceeding. You will walk thru the yard to the right of 
the house toward a little outbuilding by the hillside. Walk down the 
hillside (abt 25ft.) to a narrow bottom along the riverbank. Turn to the 
left and walk maybe 500 feet to a wider spot where there is a fenced in 
area. Near the fence is a few old trees. At one end is a clump of large 
oaks. At the other end is a couple Boxelder maples. One of the maples is 
hollow. They look to be well over 100 years old. But I understand 
boxelders do not normally survive that long. If you turn right at the 
maples, you will walk straight into the river at a sharp bend. This 
little flat area has flooded many times as it is so low and close to the 
river. I don't know why the Hatfields would have been buried here, except 
it must have looked a lot different 200 years ago.
