I have recently added the Coffey Cemetery in Watauga Co., NC to the findgrave.com database:
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&GScid=2301519&CRid=2301519&pt=Coffey%20Cemetery&
I believe I have included all the marked interments there except one which is a hand scratched boulder. I hope to have photos up by the first week in May '09.
Anyone who may have been looking for this cemetery in the past using the Geographic Names Information Server (GNIS) would not have found it listed. It was mislabeled as a Shull Cemetery and will remain that way on printed maps until the new series comes out. However, after reviewing the documentation I presented, GNIS has corrected that in their database and is searchable online.
Unfortunately, that doesn't make it any easier to get to. There isn't a road to it and a person would have to ford one of two rivers, or have access to a gated community.
