Mason Family Cemetery - Valentines
The entrance to this somewhat overgrown cemetery is on the east side of Christanna Hwy. (Route 46), approx. 0.75 mi. north of the Virginia-North Carolina state line. To reach the cemetery, one must travel down a series of farm paths and rural electric lines. At least 20 other graves are here, as evidenced by field stones and uniform depressions.
