Marker :
Dwight Hays Townsend (1834-1905) donated land for this
cemetery about 1870. The graves of two children which were
relocated here from the Leesburg Schoolyard are thought to be
the earliest burials on the site. The oldest marked grave is that
of Tapley Wylie (1836-1870). This cemetery is the primary burial
ground for the rural community of Leesburg. Those interred here
include pioneer settlers, community leaders, a large number of
infants and children, and veterans of the Civil War, World Wars I
and II, Korea, and Vietnam.
