The old Belmont Chapel Cemetery is located near Leesburg, Virginia, just south of the Route 7 and Claiborne Parkway interchange and now on the grounds of St Davids Episcopal Church and School. I visited in July 2006 and photographed the Dove gravesites.

The cemetery is located on Hunter Mill Road, south of the intersection of Route 7 and Baron Cameron Avenue in Fairfax County.
Brown's Chapel was a Methodist Church, built about 1875. In a 1969 Historical American Buildings Survey, Nan Netherton wrote: "In 1874 Augustus and Sarah Brown deeded a half acre of land to trustees of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the erection of a house of worship within 5 years. According to Edward Wagstaff, Curator of Sully, the first services were held in the church in 1879. The Hopkins' Atlas map of that year identifies the church on its original site, the southwest corner of Leesburg Pike and [now] Baron Cameron Avenue. Reverend Augustus Brown and his sons, Joe and Irving, constructed the church building. It served an active congregation until 1967."
The chapel was moved in 1968 to its present site opposite the entrance to the Lake Anne Village Center in Reston so it could be preserved. The cemetery remains on Hunter
Mill Road and is well-maintained. It's appearance today is quite different
from what I remember in the late 1940s and early 1950s - then it was a
sleepy country road, well-treed, off a two-lane Leesburg Pike. We visited a
number of times to see my grandmother's grave and leave flowers and
sometimes knock down the grass that had grown - the maintenance at that time
left a lot to be desired. Images taken in 2003 and 2008, except
as noted.

Located in Suitland, Maryland, just over the District line in Southeast Washington and adjacent to the historic Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. Joseph John Caylor was a principal in the cemetery, which helps explain why so many of his relations are buried there - he had gone so far as to reinter his father at Cedar Hill. Images taken about 2005.

In 1995, Eugene Scheel was asked by the Mobil Land Development Corporation to complete a site survey of the area being developed as Broadlands: "1) To define the boundaries of the Broad Run Church property, which held a church and graveyard; 2) To ascertain who might be buried in the graveyard, as the amount and dates of interments could determine the size and shape of the graveyard; 3) To find out from long-time residents and persons with kin in the graveyard how they would like to see the graveyard and church lot maintained, beautified. . . ."
A full copy of Scheel's report was part of the genealogy files of Ann Arnold Hennings, which I was able to examine in 2020. This copy of the report contains the report on pages 1-28 with an attached draft report "Historic American Buildings Survey: Lefevre House" following page 28. Although Scheel's report references a folded map as well as photographs, these were not included in any copy of the report I obtained, although it's likely that the report given to the Thomas Balch Library in Leesburg has these items.
The part of the report concerning the cemetery is on pages 11-20 and should be read to obtain details on many burials that are not part of the photographed grave markers.
In addition, Ann made a map of her survey of the cemetery in 1997, along with comments on the stones. This two-page survey is shown in the following two images:

This 1926 map shows the major roads in the Waxpool-Ryan-Ashburn area, as well as Beaverdam Creek, flowing north-south just west of Waxpool. It was not until 1972 that the Beaverdam Reservoir was completed. |
|
In 1937 the Waxpool area with rural with many farms on the Waxpool-Ryan Road. John LeFevre's house is visible as is the dairy farm of Earl Smith |
|
In 1957 the area remained rural but the Earl Smith dairy farm, which he had expanded, is more visible. |
|
This is a 2002 image. Broadlands was developed in the late 1990s with the homeowners association started in 1995. The cemetery was preserved and enclosed and Waxpool Road was substantially rerouted and expanded - no longer the rural two-lane road I remember from my travels there in 1998-2000. |
|
By 2015 this part of Broadlands was fully developed. |
|

| The next sixteen images were taken prior to the Broadlands subdivision being built and prior to the partial restoration of the cemetery, about 1993 - the images were found in the genealogy files of Ann Arnold Hennings and may have been taken by her or possibly by Eugene Scheel when he did his survey of the graveyard. |
