Directions: From Elizabeth, Wirt County, West Virginia. Take Rt 5 toward Grantsville, just across the first bridge go left onto 53E. Go 1.6 miles to Newark Road, turn left.

The Pribble Cemetery is one of the older cemeteries in Wirt County and contains the graves of many of it's early pioneer families. Photos and transcription below were taken September 5, 2005 by Jerry Thornton and I. While neither of us have family in this cemetery, we both have Wirt County family history ties and hope sharing this information will help others in their research. The photos have been resized to open quicker. Unfortunately, resizing sometimes changes the quality of a photo. If you have a hard time seeing a headstone photo or would like to see the original, feel free to contact me.
