You have to love these Eagle Scout projects. The latest was performed by Henry Loh of Wheeling, West Virginia. He recorded all the tombstones in the Old Tent Cemetery on Peters Run Road. He then mapped out the entire cemetery and donated the information he found to the Wheeling Area Genealogy Society.
Henry compiled all the information into a book. It is the first list or documentation for the Old Tent Cemetery. You can see a copy of the book in the Wheeling section of the Ohio County Library.
You can read more in an article by Jamie Ward in the State Journal at http://goo.gl/ntlFk
I do hope that Henry or some other interested person places the information online where we all can access it.
